Phân tích chất lượng chương trình đào tạo của các cơ sở giáo dục đại học Việt Nam từ kết quả kiểm định chất lượng

Tóm tắt

Accreditation in Vietnamese higher education has been officially implemented for 20 years with obligatory regulation for all institutions and programs. This study focuses on investigating the quality of programs offered by higher education institutions in Vietnam from accreditation results. The research analyzed data of program accreditation results published on the websites of the Ministry of Education and Training and accrediting centers. The results reveal that until the end of May 2023, 802 programs were accredited with the national standards. Among 50 criteria, there are 28 criteria with average scores from 4.00 to 4.33 and 22 criteria with average scores below 4.00. The four criteria with the highest average scores are the criteria of psychological, social and landscape environment; Learners have easy access to the complaint process about learning results; there are academic consulting activities, extracurricular activities, emulation activities and support services; and graduate employment rates are established, monitored and benchmarked to improve quality. Three criteria receiving the lowest average scores are the clarity in the contribution of each course to achieve the learning outcomes; the diversity, validity and reliability of the methods measuring the learning outcomes; and the comprehensive and up-to-date information of the course specification. This shows that accredited programs were only evaluated well in the indirect criteria related to training. In contrast, they received low scores on core criteria directly related to course outlines, learning outcomes and methods of assessing learning outcomes.
