Quality is the level of compliance of a service or product with standards, requirements and expectations. In education, it is intended to form students' knowledge and skills in accordance with the needs of the labor market and society.
Quality assurance is a set of activities aimed at continuous monitoring, evaluation and improvement of teaching, management and services. This process serves to improve the quality of university education and meet the needs of students.
Quality assurance brings trust and transparency to university education. It also creates conditions for international recognition, training of specialists in accordance with the requirements of the labor market and increasing the reputation of the university.
Accreditation is a process that officially confirms the compliance of a higher education institution or educational program with established standards. This guarantees the quality of education provided by the university at the state or international level.
Thanks to accreditation, students' diplomas are recognized both domestically and internationally. This expands their career opportunities and increases confidence in the quality of the program they study.
Quality assurance at the university is carried out through regular monitoring, evaluations, student and faculty surveys, and internal audits. Development plans are developed based on the results and curricula are constantly updated.
As a result of this process, curricula are adapted to modern requirements, teaching methods are improved, and student feedback is taken into account. Thus, students gain more complete knowledge and practical skills.
In the absence of quality assurance, the level of education may weaken, the recognition of diplomas may become difficult, and the reputation of the university may be damaged. This can also negatively affect the future career opportunities of students.
Quality assurance covers not only the educational process, but also the improvement of administrative services, student support and university management activities. This allows the overall activities of the university to be more effective and transparent.
