The EngineeriNg educaTors pEdagogical tRaining (ENTER) project aims at creating a novel multicultural and international approach for formal post-graduate professional and pedagogical education for engineering educators. It is focused on low cost and convenience, thus strongly based on e-learning technologies, whenever feasible, and designed with the objective of being internationally recognized and accredited. It is proposed a hierarchy of 3 structured educational programs for engineering educators, in the context of the European Qualifications Framework for Lifelong Learning. The methodology and quality assessment system of the developed programs are based on a multi-criteria approach and provide an adequate level of engineering educators training.

The article discusses conceptual approaches to develop a system for assessing the quality of education in accordance with the Federal State Education Standards. This task is relevant because of the requirements of regulatory documents defining the transition from education quality control methodology to education quality management methodology as a strategic direction in building an education quality assessment system from school to federal level. We consider faults of the traditional model of the school system for assessing the quality of education, the requirements for developing a modern system of quality assessment and their implementation in the author’s methodology. The need for an automated system for assessing the quality of education for the implementation of the presented model is noted. An example of the implementation of the model for assessing the quality of education in the new software product 1C:Education quality assessment. School is described, the features of implementation in this program of a three-level quality assessment system (student level, class level, school level) are discussed.

The paper shares the experience of developing the regional system for education quality assessment in the Novosibirsk Region. Education quality assessment is one of primary requirements, put forward by the Federal State Educational Standard. To facilitate the assessment procedure, assessment tool sets are formed, designed to measure the level of knowledge, skills and competencies mastered. Now it is important to complement traditional assessment tools with up-to-date ones. Test control can be helpful as one of the objective methods to assess the quality of theoretical training of learners. As the sound condition for successful use of test control method, the test materials should be thoroughly elaborated. The paper considers technological aspects of test materials development based on criteria-oriented approach and also shows how to use these test materials both for self-examination and external assessment. It is further stated, that computer-administered testing is used in the Novosibirsk Region as the main tool within procedures aimed at assessing the quality level of learners� theoretical training.

In the article the technologies of higher education quality assurance have been highlighted in the context of modern European practices. The objectivistic, relativistic approaches to ensure the quality of higher education and development concepts have been analyzed. The relationships between these approaches and their inherent features have been characterized. Considering the complexity and multidimensionality of the quality assurance process in higher education, assessments, control, and quality monitoring have been considered. The features of the quality assurance system, in particular its cyclical nature and focus on improvement, have been pointed out. The systems for assessing the quality of the educational process in the European educational space have been characterized. The objective and relativistic approaches to higher education quality assessment which are customary for Europe have been considered. The emergence of new innovative methods for assessing the quality of education, aimed primarily at improving it, have been noted. The external and internal evaluation in higher education quality assurance systems have been considered. It has been noted that the external quality assessment system is generally more focused on the understanding of quality associated with standards and cost-effectiveness, and internal - with improvements focused on competitiveness and development. In the context of practice, the implementation of technologies for quality assurance in higher education in Ukraine has been presented.

Purpose of the study: This article aims to examine professional public accreditation of educational programs as a means of ensuring that higher education remains relevant to the current socio-economic public needs in the context of shifting requirements of the labour market, digitalization of most areas of life, and new challenges in technical and technological development. Methodology: The methodological approaches to the examined phenomenon were different, which made it possible to comprehensively assess professional public accreditation of educational programs as a crucial element of independent assessment of education quality. A systems approach views professional public accreditation of educational programs as a set of measures. They aim to ensure the compliance of educational programs with the requirements of professional standards and employers' expectations. Principal Findings: the result of the study is the established need to develop professional public accreditation of educational programs in the system of independent assessment of education quality, which would make it possible to estimate the significant characteristics of an educational program and to determine whether its implementation in a specific timespan is necessary. Applications of this study: this study can contribute to the development of the specific practices of professional public accreditation of educational programs, and it can facilitate the development of the legal, theoretical, and organizational foundations of this type of public activity. Novelty/Originality of this Study: We made an attempt to analyse the role of professional public accreditation of educational programs in the system of higher education quality assessment. We studied its advantages and disadvantages, differences from other accreditation procedures, and we suggested the directions of its improvement taking into consideration the current legislation, interests of education organizations, students, their representatives, and employers.

The multivariable decision-making model has been verified based on the results of the multiple-choice questionnaires. According to the emphasis of Suggestion on further Strengthening and Improving Ideological and Political Education for College Students, which was released by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council in 2004, the Ideological and Political education system for college students should be the key indicator to assess the quality of higher education. In this paper, we give the ideological and political education quality assessment system based on multivariate decision-making. Decisions in service operations are complex since they involve various interdependent decision-makers (agents) at different hierarchical levels.
