Each year, The Council of Higher Education (CoHE)  publishes "University Monitoring and Evaluation Reports" for higher education institutions, based on criteria set by CoHE. These reports, which include quantitative and qualitative evaluations of higher education institutions, are shared with the public by CoHE.

CoHE also annually publishes the "Foundation Higher Education Institutions Report," which includes academic, administrative, and financial data of foundation higher education institutions. These reports, containing quantitative and qualitative evaluations, are shared with the public by CoHE. Quality assurance for undergraduate programs in higher education is ensured according to the "Procedures and Principles for Ensuring Quality Assurance of Higher Education Diploma Programs":
