New Territory Report on Hong Kong published

QAA has published a Territory Report on Hong Kong for our UK International Insights Members and International Members.

The resource is part of a series of Country and Territory Reports that we regularly produce to offer higher education providers an overview of the higher education and regulatory landscape for UK transnational education (TNE), partnerships and collaboration.

The reports offer high-level information and intelligence about regulations, challenges and opportunities, signposting to sources of further information. It aims to help our members who wish to develop or expand operations in Hong Kong by providing information on the higher education landscape; quality assurance of higher education; government agencies and key stakeholders; and transnational education.

It also outlines a number of key developments in the higher education landscape in Hong Kong including:

• significant growth over the past 25 years in higher education outside UGV-funded universities as a result of the Government's effort to increase the higher education participation rate
• a steady increase in the proportion of the Hong Kong population participating in post-secondary education over the last 10 years
• an overall decrease in the number of students studying for UK awards in Hong Kong, down 14% in the five years leading up to the 2021-2022 academic year.

In producing these reports, QAA seeks to liaise with local regulators and quality assurance agencies, and other UK-sector bodies with relevant expertise. QAA has several strategic partnerships with counterpart agencies in key countries for UK higher education.
