To achieve the objectives of the study, data were collected through an online survey of 467 male and female academics in 21 SFEs. The online survey consisted of (20) items. Participants were asked to indicate the current application of teaching quality indicators in SFEs teaching practices. The findings indicate the overall mean scores of the level of application of TQIs was an ‘Occasionally level’. The results also showed that there were statistically significant differences due to the nationality and participation in PD activities. Based on these findings, this paper provides recommendations to planning for achieving TQ in SFEs, taking into consideration the perspectives of academics, their involvement in the processes of planning and improving TQ, and the policies and procedures developed to guide the application of TQIs in Saudi higher education, particular in SFEs.
