HEA Streamlines Communication with Dedicated Phone Lines
The Higher Education Authority (HEA) has enhanced its communication and service delivery systems by introducing dedicated phone lines for its key departments. This initiative is designed to make it easier and faster for stakeholders, Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), and members of the public to reach the appropriate offices and receive timely responses.
Through this development, HEA reaffirms its commitment to efficiency, transparency, and accessibility in line with its 2022–2026 Strategic Plan. The move aims to reduce delays in information sharing, improve stakeholder experience, and strengthen engagement across the higher education sector.
The dedicated departmental contact lines are as follows:
Corporate Communications Unit – +260 976 936 658
- For all public relations queries, media engagements, and stakeholder information needs.
Registry Unit – +260 976 936 652
- For institutional records, general correspondence, and document submissions.
Finance Section – +260 976 936 673
- For payments, billing inquiries, and financial accountability matters.
Purchasing and Supplies Unit – +260 976 936 645
- For procurement queries, supplier engagements, and logistical support.
Inspectorate Unit – +260 976 936 634
- For inspections, monitoring, and quality assurance compliance matters.
Standards and Research Unit – +260 976 936 653
- For standards development, accreditation, and research-based policy support.
Office of the Director-General – +260 976 936 628
- For high-level engagements, official correspondence, and executive matters.
Human Resources and Administration – +260 950 470 444
- For inquiries related to staffing, recruitment, employee matters, and administrative support.
The Authority encourages all stakeholders and the general public to make use of these dedicated numbers when seeking information, submitting queries, or requesting assistance related to higher education matters.
This enhancement marks another milestone in HEA’s ongoing efforts to deliver responsive, people-centred service and foster stronger partnerships with institutions and the public.
