The systematic changes in higher education institutions in Poland over the past two decades are analyzed. The classical idea of spontaneous social development and the hypothesis of interaction between formal and informal institutions, developed on the basis of a new institutional educational policy, was adopted as a methodological basis for analyzing and evaluating the transformation of Polish higher education. Transformations in Polish higher education are part of a more general shift in the role of universities - changes that can limit the independence of research and make it an instrument of dominant social, political and economic forces. The article states that the process of improving the quality of education cannot be detached from the system of financing education. The quality of education depends on the funding system not only because it is a source of resources, but also because it creates incentives for both students and teachers. The problems in the field of financing higher education in Poland are special because the rapid quantitative development of higher education occurred during a period of deep political transformation in Poland. The activities of the State Accreditation Commission of Poland are analyzed, its main competences are highlighted. The Polish Accreditation Commission (Polska Komisja Akredytacyjna) is an independent collegiate body of higher education management aimed at improving the quality of education. It is formed by the Minister of Science and Higher Education from among the candidates proposed by the Council of the Conference of Rectors of Higher Education Institutions of Poland, the Conference of Rectors of Polish Professional Educational Institutions of Poland, the Parliament of Students of the Republic of Poland, the Senates of universities and national scientific societies and the organization of employers. The powers of the Commission include providing the Minister of Science and Higher Education with opinions, feedback and conclusions regarding the establishment of the HEI or its organizational unit, permits to study studies in a particular direction at one or another level of education; program and institutional assessment, including pedagogical education. The impact of financing higher education institutions to ensure the quality of higher education is partly considered in the article.

The aim of the article is to study the problems of reforming the system of financing higher education in conditions of compliance with world quality standards of education. Besides, another aim of the article is also to substantiate of the perspectives of their use in Ukraine, on the basis of analysis of the main foreign models of higher education institutions financing. The subject of the study is the financing model of institutions of higher education in foreign countries. Methodology. The research is based on a comparative analysis of funding systems for higher education institutions in Ukraine and in foreign countries. The advantages and disadvantages of different systems of the financial provision of higher education are determined based on the analysis of the peculiarities of financing higher education institutions in Germany, USA, UK, Sweden, Norway, and Australia and in some other countries. On the basis of a comparative legal research of certain provisions of Ukrainian legislation, the possibilities and limits of the application of positive foreign experience in this field are defined. The results of the study showed that the financing of higher education at the expense of state funds should be directed only to the needs of the state. And the state, in its turn, should provide graduates with jobs that will help reduce unemployment among them. Currently, there is a partial improvement of diversification of funding sources in Ukraine. We mean that the provision of the status of a non-profit organization will give the first impetus to the formation of contract relations between higher education institutions and private organizations and will improve their financial position. The implementation of the foreign experience will make financing more transparent and will give an opportunity to distribute it according to the quality criteria of providing educational services. Practical impact. Experience of the developed economies and the analysis of the existing condition of financing of educational institutions of Ukraine allow defining the priority directions of improvement of a system of financing of the higher education. As the budget of Ukraine is not able to compensate all needs for financial resources of higher educational institutions, it is necessary to encourage private investments into education, training, and high technologies more actively. Besides, conducting researches, the international consultations, modelling and discussion of the schematic diagram and funding mechanism for the higher education in Ukraine is also expedient. Correlation/originality. Conducting a comparative analysis of financing models of higher education institutions in Ukraine and foreign countries is the basis for developing the most promising directions for the development of domestic legislation in this field.
