Unlike its European model, the Japanese Diploma Supplement focuses not on improving fair recognition of qualifications but on making explicit the learning outcomes actually acquired by students through completion of their degree programs. This paper argues that this difference is due to the fact that the Japanese Higher Education Quality Assurance System is not equipped with a Higher Education Qualifications Framework. Because Japanese universities are unable to define their expected learning outcomes based on an agreed framework of higher education learning outcomes, they are obliged to convince stakeholders of the value of the degrees they confer by demonstrating the learning outcomes actually achieved by each of their graduates. This paper argues the urgent need of the higher education community to engage in collaborative discussion on higher education learning outcomes which will lead to the construction of a Japanese Higher Education Qualifications Framework.

This study empirically examined how higher education institutions are transformed through the development of a teaching and learning management system. Under the cooperation of the mechanical engineering faculty at Kyushu University, we discuss how program-level educational goals are reflected in subject-level educational goals within a group of faculty members and how they are evaluated in charge of the subjects. The main conclusions are as follows. First, expert judgment was cultivated at a high level among faculty members, regardless of whether they had experience in teaching and learning management. The feature of the discipline of mechanical engineering and the organizational routines contribute to enhancing the expert judgment among faculty members. Second, organizational routines sharing educational goals and evaluation tasks between skilled and junior faculty members and the sharing of educational goals at the program level through the confirmation of graduate school entrance exam questions are the keys to enhancing organizational learning.
