News: SLMCCM-WHQM is PAASCU Ready!

| August 18, 2023

The St. Lukeโ€™s Medical Center College of Medicine โ€“ William H. Quasha Memorial will soon undergo a Formal Resurvey by the Philippine Accrediting Association of Schools, Colleges and Universities (PAASCU) for Level 2 Accreditation of its Doctor of Medicine Program. The survey instrument for Level 2 accreditationย is in accordance with those of the World Federation on Medical Education (WFME).

PAASCU Level 1 accreditation was obtained by the College in May of 2019, and almost four years and one pandemic later, receiving this Level 2 accreditation would be the next milestone for the College to further validate the quality and excellent medical education being provided by the SLMCCM-WHQM.

The 3-day PAASCU Level 2 accreditation visit happening from August 30 to September 1, 2023, would be the culmination of several months-worth of preparation by the whole SLMCCM-WHQM community, from marathon meetings, to documents gathering and Self-Survey Report generation, to mock interviews. The Collegeโ€™s PAASCU Office therefore wishes to thank all the administrators, faculty, associates and students for all their hard work, cooperation and patience in order to meet this goal of being Level 2 accredited. Through all of these past months and the effort invested by everyone involved in preparation, we could safely say that the SLMCCM-WHQM is now PAASCU ready!
