PurposeBased on the principles of the human capital theory, this study investigates the role of the quality management system (QMS) in higher education institutions (HEIs) in developing successful employability attributes among graduates. Considering industry as a prominent stakeholder in academia, the authors took industry–academia collaboration as the mediating variable.Design/methodology/approachUsing the European Foundation for Quality Management model, the author analyzed how QMS in public HEIs located in London, the United Kingdom (UK), impacts business management, computer science and engineering students' employability. Following the nonprobability convenience sampling technique, this study included data from 324 local and international students.FindingsThe structural analysis identified QMS as a significant factor in enhancing students' employability, and industry–academia collaboration is found to act as a partial mediator in this relationship.Originality/valueThe management of HEIs in developing countries can take valuable guidelines from this study and integrate QMS in their institutions in developing their students' employability, as it is being done by HEIs in the UK.

Quality has become an increasingly important and critical success factor at higher education institutions, particularly universities. Numerous discussions have been held about education quality in the context of sustainable development. However, the quality of that education strongly depends on the overall quality of the management system which operates at schools. The principal aim of this article is to present the approaches to the quality management systems’ development and their assessment at universities, and share some lessons learned from this area of research. Some possibilities of the ISO 9001 standard’s implementation, as well as the application of excellence models as a response to community demands, will be discussed, especially in the context of the recently-introduced Act No. 111/1998 Coll on Higher Education Institutions, which requires quality assurance and quality evaluation. A case study from The VSB-Technical University of Ostrava shows approaches, results and effects of the quality management system implementation.

In the current economic context, quality has become a source of competitive advantage, and universities that want to achieve academic excellence must perceive quality as something integral to their activities. The purpose of this research is to demonstrate that without establishing an efficient mechanism for quality assurance and evaluation, higher education institutions turn into diplomas mills, being rather an impediment to the cultural, economic and social development of society. So, in order to ensure the success of the scientific approach, the following methods were used: scientific documentation; analytical-synthetic methods; the method of comparing and generalizing theoretical and practical data. The analysis of the quality of higher education in Moldova in terms of the provisions of the Bologna Process raised a fundamental question - the acute need for effective external evaluation mechanisms of higher education institutions in parallel with the internal mechanisms of institutions. As a result, following the empirical study, we conclude that the universities of the Republic of Moldova do not face significant problems that seriously affect the performance of the total quality management system, but they must really make efforts to improve the dimensions analyzed in within this research, in order to obtain the benefits expected from the implementation of the total quality management system.
