In a closed-door session of Madeira's Parliamentary Inquiry Commission, ISAL has reaffirmed its commitment to maintaining stability and ensuring course completion for its students.

In the recent session of the Parliamentary Inquiry Commission of the Madeira Legislative Assembly, held behind closed doors, the focus was on the operations of the Instituto Superior de Administração e Línguas (ISAL). The institution aimed to address concerns surrounding its functioning and the future of its students.

Daniel Quaresma, a representative of ISAL, emphasized the institution's full cooperation with the inquiry. He reassured stakeholders by highlighting ISAL's commitment to ensuring that all enrolled students will complete their courses despite ongoing evaluations by the Agência de Avaliação e Acreditação.

The inquiry was initiated following a decision by the Accreditation Agency to review ISAL's operations. This decision was met with concerns regarding the potential disruption to students' education. However, Quaresma has assured that ISAL is taking necessary measures to maintain educational continuity.

ISAL's role in Madeira is significant as it offers diverse programs in administration and languages, attracting both local and international students. Ensuring the stability of its programs is crucial not only for the institution but also for the educational landscape of Madeira.

This development is of particular interest to the local community and prospective students, as ISAL’s programs are well-regarded and contribute to the island’s reputation as a hub for higher education. The reassurance of course completion provides relief amid uncertainties.
