UNESA must go international," he said enthusiastically.
Prof. Aris Junaidi explained, to get international accreditation, there are several aspects that must be considered. The legal basis used in international accreditation quality assurance is Kepmendikbud Number 83/P/2020 concerning Accreditation Institutions. "This is what makes the foundational milestone for the process of institutional accreditation," he explained.
There are several criteria that must be met, namely; 1) has received recognition from an international accreditation agency or an international profession, 2) one of the study programs is international. However, in reality, these two aspects must be re-examined, such as good governance, quality assurance framework, based on outcome assessment. The components that must be prepared are decent. However, with the available resources, UNESA believes it can do it. [UNESA PR]
