Compulsory evaluation factors

  • Compulsory evaluation factors indicate evaluation factors whereby colleges should satisfy and exceed quantitative requirements and conditions designated by KAVE in order to be accredited. Thus, colleges should satisfy and exceed designated quantitative requirements and conditions even though the method of evaluation applied to the compulsory evaluation factors is qualitative quantitative evaluation.
  • Designated aims of compulsory evaluation factors
  • Achieving the original aim of accreditation by inspecting various conditions that colleges should fundamentally have in order to secure education quality
  • Enhancement of reliability of accreditation results
  • Structuring systemic connections of the accreditation results with various administrative & financial support and resolving suspicions of paternalistic evaluation
  • Quantitative requirements of compulsory evaluation factors : The requirements for compulsory evaluation factors indicate the level generally expected of “education quality” that a college should have, meaning the level required by various laws and regulations such as the regulation of establishment of college, the criteria applied in projects financially supported by the government (projects of intensification of educational capability of colleges), and the level in which the average of all colleges is considered.
