Data collection processes start by interviewing the stakeholders of internal quality assurance system at higher education institutions and then distributing questionnaires related to the implementation of internal quality assurance system at each higher education institution.

The article analyzes the higher education institutions activities of the Republic of Poland in order to identify the perspective directions of the use of Polish experience in quality assurance in Ukraine. In particular, the activities of Maria Curie-Skłodowska University, Lublin University of Technology, University of Warmia and Mazury and the University of Rzeszow concerning the quality of education have been analyzed. The main methodological issue of the research is in what extent and in what forms it is possible and appropriate to use in the domestic educational system the achievements of modern Polish experience in creating internal quality assurance system of higher education. It is concluded, that perspective directions of the use of Polish experience in Ukraine are: conceptual (defining goals and strategies for quality assurance in higher education, taking into account best educational practices, as well as Standards and Guidelines for Quality Assurance in the European Higher Education Area); normative-legal (creation of internal normative-legal documents concerning quality assurance in higher education); organizational (creation of a procedure for quality assurance at the university, the mandatory components of which are: reporting, control and monitoring). Quality assurance in higher education is a continuous, systematic and multifaceted process. For Ukraine, at this stage, it is fundamentally important that the National Agency for the Quality Assurance in Higher Education commenced its activity, since the formal existence of this Agency makes it impossible to certify the systems of internal quality assurance of higher education institutions, as well as the introduction of institutional accreditation and self-accreditation of programs. The ultimate goal is to create conditions for building a quality culture, which consists of cultural and psychological aspects, and management structures.

<p><em>Higher education institutions (HEI) are encouraged to develop Internal Quality Assurance System (IQAS) that could assist the process of external audit, accreditation and to face the tight competition. General phenomenon of HEI’sIQAS,so far, is still away from qualified and even practically tends to be manipulative. This literature-based article aims to review the role of leadership in campus political practice and the urgence of external professional usage in order to improve internal quality assurance in HEI. The study reveals that improper campus political practice has become the bottleneck for the effectiveness of IQAS. It needs a fundamental change of top leader’s paradigm, particularly in the policy of internal auditor placement. A revolutionary breakthrough of hiring external professional tobe placed as internal auditor seems to be needed, specifically to keep the independency and objectivity, as well as to assure the qualified performance of all units in HEI.</em></p>

Internal Quality Assurance

Of the 4,680 universities in Indonesia, there are still many accredited universities with a C rank of 1283, A rank is still low, namely 96 and 2421 not accredited. Higher education has difficulty and is very burdened with the accreditation process because the entire process is done manually and problems in quantitative forms are very often encountered. In line with the current problems faced by universities in Indonesia, the concept of an artificial intelligence-based internal quality assurance system is proposed. The results of digital data recordings from the internal quality assurance system and the information system center are carried out by a clustering process using the K-Means algorithm and calculating the weight of each criterion using template matching for the process of matching the weighting results to the target. With this system, all academic and non-academic elements in higher education can be improved, evaluated periodically
