Welcome to the International Association of Private Universities and Colleges (IAPUC) International Event Submission Platform. As a valued member of our global community, you are invited to submit online learning and professional development events for exposure to an international audience of educators, institutional administrators, researchers, and industry leaders. This initiative aims to foster innovation and elevate quality standards across the global private higher education landscape.

This platform is designed to expand event visibility, connect professionals across IAPUC’s 37-country global network, and facilitate collaborative advancement in online learning and educational technology. By sharing institutional initiatives and professional expertise, members advance IAPUC’s core mission: fostering innovation, upholding academic excellence, and promoting international cooperation within the private education sector.

Submission Requirements

All submissions must adhere to IAPUC’s unified quality standards to safeguard the interests of member institutions and the broader global private higher education community. Detailed submission guidelines are set forth below.

Core Requirements

The table below summarises all mandatory core submission criteria for quick reference:

• Event Relevance
  Submissions must focus on e-learning, educational technology, digital pedagogy, online education quality assurance, and other relevant fields that drive the development of private higher education. Events aligned with IAPUC’s three core pillars — Mission-Driven, Outcome-Based, and Performance Excellence— receive priority consideration.
• Comprehensive Event Details
  Provide complete and precise event information, including clear educational objectives, well-defined target participants (e.g., faculty members, institutional administrators, researchers, industry professionals), core event themes and topics, as well as verified profiles of confirmed speakers, facilitators, and panellists (where applicable).
• Date, Time and Venue
  Specify the exact event date and time with a standard time zone (e.g., UTC, EST, SGT), full venue particulars (physical addresses for in-person events and platform access details for online events), as well as event duration and a detailed activity schedule.
• Registration Process
  Outline the full registration procedure clearly, including official registration channels, applicable fees (with detailed breakdowns of member, student, and early-bird discounts), registration deadlines, participation confirmation protocols, and pre-event preparation requirements for participants.
• Organiser Information
  Submit valid institutional background information, encompassing the organising entity’s mission and institutional profile, proven experience in hosting relevant academic and educational events, official qualifications, accreditation status, institutional affiliations, and key members of the organising team.
• Visual Materials
  Submit high-resolution, event-relevant visual materials. All graphics and images must be fully copyright-compliant and legally licensed. Visual content shall maintain a professional, academic tone, serve purely for event showcase (without commercial promotion), and comply strictly with official branding guidelines when displaying institutional logos and accreditation marks.
• Contact Information
  Designate a dedicated contact person or administrative office, and provide valid email and telephone contacts to address participant enquiries regarding event registration, attendance, and other related matters.
• Non-promotional Focus
  All submissions must prioritize educational value, professional development outcomes, and institutional quality enhancement. Content of a purely commercial, sales-oriented, or promotional nature will be rejected. All event content must uphold academic integrity and the advancement of professional knowledge.

Additional Considerations

The following supplementary standards must be observed to ensure event accessibility, standardisation and compliance:

• Accessibility Arrangements
  Specify inclusive support services for participants with disabilities, including online captioning and transcription, accessibility facilities for in-person venues, and real-time language interpretation services (where applicable).
• Cancellation and Refund Policy
  Clearly stipulate the official terms governing event cancellation, postponement, and refunds, including penalty-free cancellation deadlines, refund eligibility criteria, formal processing procedures, and protocols for organiser-initiated event adjustments.
• Language Standard
  All submission documents must be written in formal, professional English. Submissions in other languages will not be accepted. Events delivered in non-English languages may still be promoted, provided all submission materials are presented in English and comprehensive accessibility support arrangements are fully documented.
• Compliance with IAPUC Standards
  Event organisers certify that all submitted events fully comply with IAPUC’s ethical norms and quality standards, as defined in the IQA Certification Academic Ethics and Code of Conduct(IAPUC/ETH-2026-001) and the IQA Academic Quality Standards Manual (IAPUC/IQA-CORE-2026-004). Organisers are required to review these documents thoroughly prior to submission.
