EVALUATING QUALITY ASSURANCE IN EDUCATION: A SYSTEMATIC LITERATURE REVIEW

Abstract

Quality assurance in education remains a critical consideration for educational institutions, particularly in a global context marked by increasing competition and evolving labor market demands. This study aims to identify key models of quality assurance in education and examine their applicability across diverse geographical contexts to enhance educational standards. Utilizing a systematic literature review guided by the PRISMA 2020 methodology, the research analyzes practices and policies implemented by various institutions and countries, emphasizing the importance of tailoring these approaches to local specificities. The study underscores the pivotal role of stakeholders, whose active engagement is indispensable to the efficacy of quality assurance processes. The findings of this study encourage a re-evaluation of existing models, promoting flexible and adaptive practices to support continuous improvement in educational quality.
