The intent of the study was to implore the learning model as process of improving quality at higher education institutions. This study was conducted through the use of semi-structured interviews and documental analysis process. The study did attract responses from 45 academics who work closely with academic quality matters as heads of schools. Majority of the respondents considered a learning model as approach towards quality assurance improvement. The policies as applied in higher Education were also the main drivers. Most of the responses felt that even though quality is a cumbersome matter they can manage the process.
