Key Recommendation for Improvement 23

GIT always had a scrupulous approach towards data protection. It reflects our integrity and trust. As the panel could notice, the GIT office is kept under lock and key and no one has access to the documents except the director and his wife that does the necessary secretarial work. Every locker has a key which is only available to the director. Files that have personal information are secured with a password. The password is known only by the director and a GU representative. However, to meet KR23, a GDPR policy was written to reflect the recommendation http://www.git.edu.mt/gdpr.htm .

The information collected by GIT is passed on to GU. The experts at GU analyse this information as required by their accreditation body. These are the official surveys. However, GIT does have its own surveys. According to these surveys, there was never anything that actually needed special attention. Furthermore, since there is a strong rapport between students, instructors and Staff, students are free to address with the instructor their concern. The SAR in Standard 3K strength and weaknesses addressed this matter and in fact did collect data from Alumni. GIT does not have an academic year because this does not fit the purpose for distance learning and self-paced schools. However, after alumni complete the program, they do fill a GIT (besides a GU) satisfaction survey. This data is analysed annually by GU staff. Thus, various metrics depending on this data are produced relevant to each calendar year to evaluate progress in several student performance and satisfaction dimensions. If the need arises, any data can be provided by GU within moments a request is made.
