Tripoli- University of Tripoli has obtained the ISO 9001 accreditation after the International Audit and Conformity Committee completed its visits to the various departments of the University of Tripoli.

Accordingly, the university will obtain an accreditation certificate for a period of three years.

The accreditation will enable the University of Tripoli to continuously update and develop administrative procedures.

The accreditation will be announced on the international website and the certificate will be issued within two weeks.

This accreditation is a motive for the rest of the Libyan universities, as the University of Tripoli is the first Libyan university to obtain accreditation in North Africa.

The Minister of Higher Education and Scientific Research, Imran Al-Qayeb, stressed the need for higher education and scientific research institutions to work in accordance with international standards in institutional work in order to advance higher education in universities and higher institutes.

University of Tripoli had applied for accreditation five months ago, during which all the documents required for accreditation were completed, and accordingly the team was sent for audit this week.

The team was headed by a Jordanian expert and comprised a member from Jordan and two members from Libya, in addition to a member of the observer of the International Committee to evaluate the performance of the committee from Tunisia.
