Increasing competition in the field of education has led to the creation of mechanisms for assessing the activities of educational institutions. The assessment of the activities of the HEI should be carried out both at the state level and by independent expert institutions, taking into account the index of academic integrity, the index of the academic reputation of the HEI, the index of employers' satisfaction with university graduates, the achievements of the educational institution, the wishes of students, scientific, scientific and pedagogical workers. Such monitoring is carried out to assure students, administration and the state that the given HEI has a high level of expert assessment. In world practice, independent organizations are engaged in the development and implementation of methods for independent assessment of the quality of education, in particular the ratings of educational institutions, using the results of international comparative research in the field of education.
