PROGRAMME (SPECIALIZED) ACCREDITATION

Accreditation of educational programmes consists of an official examination conducted by the accreditation agency in order to determine whether the training for these programmes meets the accepted standards and requirements.

The quality assurance system is evaluated in accordance with the IQAA quality standards by external experts who offer an objective view of the approaches and mechanisms for quality assurance and programme development. Accreditation is designed to play the role of a guarantor of the quality and reliability of the organization of education according to accredited educational programmes, to create trust on the part of applicants and their parents, and recognition by employers of the validity of the education received by graduates.
