Model of an Integrated Accreditation Process in University Education

Abstract

The legal regulations regarding education seek to guarantee the educational quality framed in the process of university accreditation through process management (ISO 9001:2015 standard) and the competency approach. Most universities do not guarantee a quality university education during the years of comprehensive training for their students, this is due to the fact that there are uncontrollable and controllable factors that cause instability in students, but which are not considered important except for academic performance measured quantitatively. The model for the accreditation of university higher education study programs addresses 34 standards that universities must implement to guarantee the university education of their students during the years they remain in it, mostly avoiding possible dropouts. This research relates these key and redundant standards that will be the inputs to propose a model of integrated higher education process that guarantees quality training and thus, comply with Peruvian society and stakeholders. The analysis of the information is qualitative with a retrospective longitudinal design; As a result, the model was built that identifies 4 key processes and 10 redundant ones.
