Education Quality Consulting

The world as a whole, and within it every single nation in the world, yearns for sustainable development, and this undoubtedly is the reason behind the current consecration of the Sustainable Development Goals [SDGs] the world over. On the other hand, the sine qua non of sustainable development is quality education and, due to this reason, for the world as a whole, and for every single nation in the world, sustainable development cannot be achieved but by people who are able to make informed decisions to meet their own needs and the needs of others in the present time without compromising the needs of future generations. And such people’s ability is the ultimate outcome of no other process than quality education.

Education Quality is not a dream. It is rather a target that is real and which E&PE Consult®|FGGH strives to make a sure deal for anyone who approaches us in this regard, provided they keep ensuring it is continually being assured, enhanced, assessed and evaluated. The attainment of education quality is actually hampered by a lot of challenges and, for this reason, E&PE Consult®|FGGH is set and determined through its Education Quality Consulting Department to continuously help education providers around the world to elicit what their education quality attainments are up to, and from there suggest them recommended measures through which they themselves can both assure and enhance the quality of their education.

The objectives pursued by E&PE Consult®|FGGH’s Education Quality Consulting are basically two-pronged in the sense of (1) assessing and establishing for the account of the commissioning organization or institution, body, agent or individual, the status of the situation assigned for analysis in terms of education quality, and (2) suggesting recommended actions to take in order to improve the situational status elicited from the analysis carried out. This implies therefore that E&PE Consult®|FGGH is also competent to provide its clients with suggested measures for both Education Quality Assurance [EQA] and Education Quality Enhancement [EQE]. However, a third objective of E&PE Consult®|FGGH’s Education Quality Consulting emerges from the above- mentioned two ones, and this is (3) to design and implement for the commissioning organization or institution, body, agent or individual, an education professional development program aimed at helping them bridge the education quality gap uncovered from the situation analysis in the first place, and then empower them going forward with the capacity to ensure by themselves their education is both quality-assured and continually quality-enhanced for sustainability purposes. So, in this respect E&PE Consult®|FGGH carries out consultancies that require looking into one, some, or all of the aspects that play a role in determining the quality of education whether Non-Formal or Formal and, particularly regarding formal education or schooling, at any given level among its Pre- Primary, Primary, Secondary or High School, and Tertiary levels.

In actual fact, all the other four areas in which E&PE Consult®|FGGH offers consulting services — namely Curriculum Development, Review and Revision; Teacher Professional Development; Educational Assessment and Evaluation; Peace Education — are complementary areas expected to be propping up the above-portrayed so important area of Education Quality.

More About Our Belief

As the 1997-2007 UK Prime Minister Anthony Charles Lynton Blair usually known as Tony Blair has once said that his government’s three top priorities would be “Education, Education, Education”, education should indeed be placed above and beyond everything else as the top priority. In this perspective too, the main inspiration and goal of E&PE Consult®|FGGH is education and, every Education Consulting assignment trusted to us at E&PE Consult®|FGGH is guaranteed to be executed and supervised professionally as we very well know any single mistake in this area could cause serious consequences in the long run. So, it is for the purpose of always making sure the latter does not happen to your educational enterprise that we set up the consulting firm branded E&PE Consult®|FGGH.

Last but not least, education should be of quality. On the other hand, quality education or, in other words education worth to be so called, has to be promoting peace given that, indeed, “all education is implicitly peace education, in that there is a moral assumption within all education that we are training students to operate in and contribute to a peaceful world” (Page: 2014, p.5). On the global scale, this whole reality transpires through Sustainable Development Goal #16 which is about Promoting Just, Peaceful and Inclusive Societies.

Expertise

Senior expert trained in education up to the doctoral level having practiced the profession of education since 1982, Dr Erasme Rwanamiza, creator and owner of E&PE Consult®|FGGH as its sole proprietor for the time being, happens to be the Consultant who has spearheaded the development of the very first Education Quality benchmarking tool in Rwanda. Dr Rwanamiza is the one who has indeed led in Rwanda from August to September 2006 a team of Education Inspectors from the then Inspectorate General of Education [IGE] in developing and drafting Rwanda’s Education Quality Standards that ended up being promulgated into Presidential Order N° 48/01 of 10/08/2009 establishing Quality Standards in Education for Nursery, Primary and Secondary Schools. This Presidential Order was published in September 2009 by the then Rwanda’s Inspectorate General of Education [IGE] in a booklet titled Quality Standards in Education for Nursery, Primary and Secondary Schools in Rwanda, and it can be retrieved from the internet on pp.3-82 of this document. Furthermore, by the time those Education Quality Standards were promulgated through the said Presidential Order in 2009, Dr Rwanamiza also happened to be the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Rwanda’s Inspectorate General of Education [IGE], quality education standards watchdog that he chaired from 2008 up to 2011 when Rwanda Education Board [REB] was created from the merger of IGE with some other agencies of Rwanda’s Ministry of Education.

More information about Dr Erasme Rwanamiza can be found in this detailed CV much of whose information is closely related to Education in general and Peace Education in particular actually in alignment with Dr Rwanamiza’s following main specialisms: Curriculum Theory and Development; The Process of Teaching-and-Learning; Educational Assessment and Evaluation; Quality of Education; Psychopedagogy / Educational Psychology; Peace Education and Conflict Studies.
