SKU: cje-32-2-5

“Internationalization of Tertiary Education in the Caribbean'' refers, at least in part, to the extent to which the Anglophone Caribbean provides access to higher education at international standards of quality, scope, cost, and relevance.

SKU: cje-28-2-7

These changes are requiring universities to place much greater emphasis on self-study, and on ensuring that they are performing efficiently in all areas, including the area of student transformation, which is an area of performance linked, at least in part, to academic results.
