The CHE institutional audits of universities focuses on internal quality assurance mechanisms but also on wider issues such as transformation, social impact, and social justice. The role of technology, the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) in society, and data analytic capability are key to the Audit. Likewise, the CHE’s new accreditation framework (2020/1) foregrounds the 4IR and decolonisation transformation in the processes outlined, as do the accreditation instruments of several regulatory bodies such as ECSA and the HPCSA. Approximately 24 SLPs in the 4IR arena have been developed across the faculties. It must be noted that various support staff units are actively engaging the 4IR imperative in addressing the interdisciplinary drive across the University’s programme mix. Approximately 24 SLPs in the 4IR arena have been developed across the faculties 2022 ANNUAL REPORT: DIVISION FOR TEACHING EXCELLENCE 88
