About The 9th ICACIT Symposium

ICACIT, the accrediting agency specialized in Computing, Engineering, Technology in Engineering, Science and Architecture programs, has 20 years promoting continuous improvement of educational quality in higher education programs, it is the first Latin American agency to signatory of the Washington Accordand a member of the European Network for Accreditation in Engineering Education - ENAEE, accords that bring together the most prestigious engineering accreditation agencies in the world.

Quality Assurance and Accreditation.
Teaching and Learning in Education in Engineering and Computing.
Linking students and teachers with Industry, Government, Society and Academy.
Students, teachers and associated services.
Equity, diversity and inclusion.

Led by professionals with great experience and internationally recognized. Workshops will be developed to offer you the tools and guidance to implement and maintain continuous improvement processes in higher education programs.

Only at the Symposium will you have access to a room with self-study reports of programs accredited by ICACIT. The self-study reports chosen do not necessarily demonstrate full compliance with the ICACIT criteria. However, they fulfill the purpose of exemplifying how to prepare the self-study report.
