The indicators of enhancement were designed to facilitate informed discussions at all levels within institutions about the enhancement of the student experience. They were not designed to be used as a check list for Enhancement-led institutional review (ELIR) or as a set of performance indicators.
The indicators of enhancement are a contribution to the overall environment which supports the enhancement of higher education in Scotland.
The concept of the Indicators arose from the Joint Quality Review Group, a working group set up by the Scottish Funding Council to review quality assurance and enhancement. The development of the Indicators formed part of the activities for the Scottish higher education sector during the interim year in 2007-08. They were designed by a working group chaired by Professor Peter Easy (Senior Vice Principal, Napier University) and managed by the Scottish Higher Education Enhancement Committee (SHEEC).
