      This Chapter provides for who are higher education providers, and for 4 kinds of grants to be made.
      Part 2‑1 sets out who are higher education providers (universities, self‑accrediting entities and non self‑accrediting entities), the quality and accountability requirements for higher education providers and how bodies cease to be higher education providers.

          Note: A body's approval as a higher education provider may be suspended or revoked for such a breach.
