A Directory to International LIS Education Accreditation Processes: Part III

Abstract

We will continue to look at LIS education accreditation processes across the world in Part III of this directory. This time, readers will find information on the accreditation processes for LIS education in New Zealand. Any new LIS education programs and degrees offered by universities in New Zealand, or any significant changes made to the existing structure of LIS education programs in New Zealand universities must get approval from the Committee on University Academic Programmes (CUAP). The Library and Information Association of New Zealand Aotearoa (LIANZA) assesses the LIS education providers in New Zealand on their coverage of the body of knowledge regularly.
