Abstract

ESPINOZA, Oscar  and  GONZALEZ, Luis Eduardo. Estado actual del sistema de aseguramiento de la calidad y el régimen de acreditación en la educación superior en Chile. Rev. educ. sup [online]. 2012, vol.41, n.162, pp.87-109. ISSN 0185-2760.

This paper is aimed at characterizing the current quality assurance system for higher education in Chile. We discuss the main implications that the Chilean model of accreditation has brought to the country's higher education system by presenting and analyzing official data. Results show that, although the Chilean model has permitted a more orderly and coherent growth of the higher education system as a whole, there are still several limitations and challenges yet to be addressed.

Keywords : Higher education; Quality assurance; Accreditation.
