Speaking at the opening of the
Seminar, Dr. Ta Thi Thu Hien – Standing Vice Director of VNU-CEA mentioned that
the COVID-19 Pandemic has brought about great challenges and impact on the
strategic objectives of accreditation of the national system. This requires us
to find out new methods to respond to the new situation. It’s important for
Vietnam to learn from the experience in online accreditation of other ASEAN
nations, especially of the Philippines, where online accreditation was
conducted very early. Dr. Ta
Thi Thu Hien – Standing Vice Director of VNU-CEA gave an opening speech
At the Seminar, Mr. Ricardo R.
Palo – Executive Director of the Philippine Accrediting Association of Schools,
Colleges and Universities (PAASCU) shared experiences on higher education
accreditation in the Philippines and the adaptation of online assessment
methods, with emphasis on PAASCU’s experiences in education accreditation
(standards, processes, methods and use of quality accreditation results);
experiences in online assessment for higher education institutions and
programmes.
After that, Prof. Dr. Mai
Trong Nhuan shared detailed studies and assessments on the impact of education
accreditation activities on university autonomy, which is a relatively new
issue in Vietnam. Using the results of education accreditation to give autonomy
to higher education institutions as well as planning policies to invest in and
support education institutions will be a premise to promote and improve the
quality of education.
