This study aims to examine the impact of systematic quality assurance practices of accreditation, monitoring and evaluation, and curriculum on human resource development based on the mediating role of student engagement. Partial least squares structural modeling (PLS-SEM) was employed to analyze empirical data collected from 309 respondents from higher education institutions in Afghanistan. The findings exhibited that accreditation, monitoring and evaluation, and curriculum have a strong and positive impact on human resource development. These relationships are also significantly mediated by student engagement. Quality assurance is globally recognized as essential for higher education to produce competent graduates who meet international standards. Thus, quality assurance in higher education provides valuable guidance for policymakers and institutions seeking to enhance human resource development and support national improvement. However, to improve the quality of higher education, understanding the influence of other factors is imperative.
