Research background: Despite a fairly long tradition of measuring students’ assessment of the quality of obtained university education, there are still many unresolved issues in this area. The aim of the study: to theoretically substantiate the concept of a profile of graduates’ satisfaction with university educational programs including several parameters. The satisfaction profile serves as a criterion of the quality of education, at the same time reflecting students’ subjective assessment of the learning outcomes received at the university that they correlate with their expectations at the stage of admission. The concept is proposed in association with the monitoring of university graduates’ satisfaction with educational programs developed and tested as part of the research work at the Russian State Social University. Methods: graduate satisfaction is assessed using quantitative (questionnaires, the results of which are processed in SPSS) and qualitative (interviews) research methods. The proposed and tested method for the assessment of university graduates’ satisfaction with educational programs can serve as a basis for the development of university systems for monitoring graduates’ satisfaction with educational programs and education quality management and the satisfaction profile can become a universal criterion of education quality assessment not only in Russian but also in foreign universities. Results and novelty: The novelty and significance of the study results lie in the fact that the rating of educational process factors significant for graduates’ satisfaction provides information that can be used for successfully placing the direction of training in the market of educational services. Moreover, two ratings of the importance of the identified factors are constructed. The first one reflects the respondents’ direct assessment that can be used in advertising and information campaigns in the market of educational services. The second rating shows indirect assessment providing a more adequate image of the real impact of various factors on graduates’ satisfaction with educational programs; the results of this rating can be used in the intra-university quality management.

Stage second is activity. The purpose is to form a system of knowledge on prognosis, skills, and abilities to implement prognostic activities (mainly during the II – III semesters). Stage III is evaluative-reflexive, its purpose is to analyze the formation of students’ prognostic competence in the process of professional training (mainly the IV semester). The content of the discipline of choice «Prognostic activity in the field of information technology» is revealed. Its purpose is to form in students a set of theoretical knowledge and methodological foundations in the field of forecasting analytics, as well as practical skills necessary for the application of prognostic in professional activities. The digital tools for the realization of pedagogical technology in the conditions of distance education are given. The main directions of research work realization of students for the formation of prognostic competence are revealed: participation in work of a scientific circle on actual problems of programming «Computer systems»; involvement of students in non-formal education and implementation of independent research through courses on open online platforms; fulfillment of research tasks; participation in scientific competition events (student competitions, contests, conferences, exhibitions, workshops that stimulate individual creativity of students and the development of the system of scientific work at the university).

Europos aukštojo mokslo erdvės kūrimas skatina šio kontinento aukštąsias mokyklas susimąstyti apie aukštojo mokslo konkurencingumo ir jo vertės didinimą. Tai pasiekti Lietuvos aukštosios mokyklos gali tik nuolat gerindamos studijų kokybę,savo įvaizdį ir reputaciją. Šiame straipsnyje aptariamos bendrosios studijų kokybės ir įvaizdžio gerinimo aukštosiose mokyklose teorinės prielaidos, jas iliustruojant tyrimų, kurie buvo atlikti visame Vilniaus universitete ir atskirai Ekonomikosfakultete, duomenimis. Visuose Vilniaus universiteto padaliniuose 2005–2006 m. atlikome keturis didelio masto tyrimus (įvertinome vidinį Vilniaus universiteto įvaizdį, studentų požiūrį į studijų kokybę, pradedančiųjų studijuoti Universitete ir jų tėvų lūkesčius, tų lūkesčių pokyčius po pirmojo studijų pusmečio) ir identifikavome pagrindines problemines sritis. Siekdami nustatyti šių problemų priežastis, mėginome pažvelgti dar giliau – atlikome tyrimą viename Vilniaus universiteto padalinyje (Ekonomikos fakultete), kuriuo aiškinomės, kokie veiksniai daro įtaką aukštosios mokyklos įvaizdžiui ir kaip Universiteto įvaizdis siejasi su siūlomų studijų kokybe.Reikšminiai žodžiai: studijų kokybė, įvaizdis, aukštoji mokykla.The impact of study quality on the image of a higher education institutionBirutė Galinienė, Algirdas Miškinis, Albinas Marčinskas, Greta Drūteikienė SummaryIssues concerning the image and reputation strengthening of higher education institutions have recently been given an important consideration in Lithuania and other European countries. In the article we will discuss the fundamentals of the university education quality and image strengthening in theoretical premises, and illustrate them using data of studies performed at the Vilnius University.

Ghana’s education system has gone through several reforms in the post-independence period in the bid to increase access, ensure equity and quality at all levels (basic to tertiary). However, these goals seem to be a mirage especially on issues concerning quality at the secondary and tertiary levels. Against this backdrop, it has become imperative to raise relevant questions for the development of a new synthesis that is practical enough to allow for the necessary action to push forward the quality discourse which is a major concern among stakeholders. This paper intends to at least, serve the purpose of refreshing our memories concerning how we have individually or collectively, as citizens and academics, pondered over free secondary education, quality education and the role of the university teacher within the melting pot of the quality discourse in Ghana. It also serves the purpose of instigating a discourse on teachers’ role in ensuring quality education.

The University is the cradle of the higher education. In the college life, the college students continue to accept the new knowledge and continue to grow. Obviously, the level of the university education will be directly related to the growth for the college students. Therefore, it is an important job to evaluate and order the college education quality. In this paper, we combine the Grey theory, TOPSIS with DEA method. And we propose an improved Grey-TOPSIS-DEA model. Then, we use the model to evaluate the college education quality. Finally, we get the rankings of the college education. In the last part of this paper, we use the method to evaluate the education quality for different colleges. And we verify the validity of the method.
