A Career Calling International initiative, AHEG brings together the nation's most experienced higher education consultants. Every team member holds formal ISO quality auditing qualifications, and together we represent over 200 years of combined expertise in TEQSA registration, course accreditation, CRICOS compliance, and Higher Education Standards Framework requirements. All our work is 100% quality assured.
What services does AHEG provide?
AHEG provides comprehensive services for higher education providers including: TEQSA provider registration (initial, re-registration, and category changes), course accreditation and renewal, CRICOS registration for international students, HES Framework compliance auditing, academic governance support, policy and procedure development, quality assurance system design, and ongoing compliance monitoring. We serve universities, private higher education providers, and organisations seeking to enter the higher education sector.
What is AHEG's track record?
AHEG has an exceptional track record in supporting providers through TEQSA registrations and course accreditations. Our systematic approach, combined with the experience of our ISO-qualified consultants, ensures comprehensive submissions that address all regulatory requirements. We are so confident in our work that all our work is 100% quality assured: if TEQSA identifies non-compliance in work we have delivered, we rectify it at no additional cost.
What qualifications do AHEG consultants hold?
Every AHEG consultant holds formal ISO quality auditing qualifications including ISO 9001:2015 (Quality Management), ISO 14001:2015 (Environmental Management), ISO 45001:2018 (Occupational Health and Safety), ISO 22000:2018 (Food Safety), ISO 27001:2013 (Information Security), and ISO 19011:2018 (Auditing Management Systems). Our team includes former university registrars, TEQSA liaison officers, academic governance specialists, and higher education compliance experts.
How long does TEQSA registration take?
TEQSA registration timeframes vary depending on the provider category and complexity of the application. Initial registration typically takes 6-12 months from submission, though this depends on the completeness of the application and TEQSA's assessment queue. AHEG helps streamline this process by ensuring your application is comprehensive from the outset, reducing requests for additional information and associated delays.
Does AHEG work with international providers?
Yes, AHEG assists international education providers seeking to establish operations in Australia. We provide guidance on TEQSA registration requirements, CRICOS compliance for enrolling international students, ESOS Act obligations, and the National Code 2018. Our consultants understand the unique challenges faced by international providers entering the Australian higher education market.
What does 100% quality assured mean?
100% quality assured means that if TEQSA identifies any non-compliance issues in work that we have prepared and delivered on your behalf, we will rectify the issues at no additional cost to you. This commitment reflects our confidence in the quality of our work and our dedication to client success. It applies to all compliance documentation, policies, procedures, and submission materials prepared by AHEG consultants.
