Corruption in international higher education is a growing problem as it has become a large, commercialized industry. Some universities and private actors prioritize profits over quality and ethics, admitting unqualified students and engaging in fraudulent practices. If these issues are not addressed, it could undermine the trust and integrity of international higher education collaborations. Solutions include strengthening accreditation and quality assurance, increasing transparency, and coordinating international oversight of standards and regulations.
Breve resumen de la ley de reautorizacion de educacion (HEOA)Alfredo Calderón
The Higher Education Opportunity Act of 2008 (HEOA) reauthorized the Higher Education Act of 1965 and introduced significant changes to accreditation and the relationship between higher education institutions and the federal government. It expanded government oversight over areas traditionally controlled by higher education like finance, governance, and judgments of academic quality. It also increased reporting requirements for institutions around issues like distance education, student outcomes, and data reporting. The HEOA shifted some power in accreditation from the executive branch to Congress and required institutions to establish policies for transferring credits and verifying student identity in distance education courses while protecting student privacy.
Global Perspectives on Quality Assurance: United States, Germany & AustraliaYvonne Oberhollenzer
The document discusses quality assurance in higher education in several countries and contexts:
- It describes the Bologna Process which aimed to ensure comparability and quality of higher education systems across Europe through mechanisms like accreditation agencies and qualification frameworks.
- It outlines Germany's national system of accreditation involving several agencies that accredit degree programs.
- It provides an overview of quality assurance in the United States, noting the decentralized system of regional accreditation and debates around increasing or decreasing regulation at the state and federal level.

This document discusses higher education systems in developed countries like the USA, UK, Australia, and Germany. It covers topics such as funding mechanisms, accreditation processes, admission criteria, and the role of higher education in economic development. The main points made are that higher education contributes significantly to social and economic growth, systems vary from decentralized to centralized governance and both public and private institutions exist, and quality assurance involves independent accreditation bodies.
1. Transnational education (TNE) involves higher education study programs where learners are located in a different country than the awarding institution. TNE has increased in recent years and takes various forms such as franchising programs, branch campuses, and distance learning.
2. TNE poses challenges for quality assurance, accreditation, and recognition of qualifications between national education systems. It also raises issues about equal access to education and the commercialization of education.
3. While TNE can increase access to education, some programs operate for-profit and charge very high tuition fees, threatening principles of affordable and equitable education. Quality assurance is also difficult with some transnational programs that are not part of any
The Relationship Between Federal Financial Aid And Tuition...Casey Hudson
The document discusses first year freshman policies at institutions of higher education. It notes that such policies aim to attract incoming freshman and help them successfully transition into university life until completion. Specifically, the policies look to market the university experience to incoming students and provide assistance that influences whether students will expect to complete their four years. The document suggests students need support to navigate their first year and institutions have the power to implement policies that foster this support through marketing and programs. It examines the role of first year freshman policies in higher education organization and governance.
The document discusses the responsibilities of education providers in the UK that sponsor overseas students under Tier 4 of the Points-Based Immigration System. It notes that to sponsor students, education providers must have a Tier 4 Sponsor Licence, which places duties on them to ensure students enroll and complete their courses. Education providers that have held a licence for around a year may obtain Highly Trusted Sponsor status if they have a history of immigration compliance. However, the legitimacy of some education providers with this status has been questioned. When evidence suggests a sponsor is breaching its duties or threatens immigration control, its licence can be suspended pending investigation. Courts have made it clear that sponsor status is a privilege that carries great responsibility, and compliance is required to
Higher education contributes to social and economic development in many countries by providing skilled workers and driving innovation. It has become increasingly globalized with more student and faculty mobility between countries. Different education systems have diverse models of public and private institutions, degree types, academic calendars, admissions criteria, governance structures, funding sources, and quality assurance processes. Universities play an important role in developing national economies through knowledge generation and workforce development.
This document introduces the rationale, goals, and expected outcomes of the 2nd IAU Global Meeting of Associations. The meeting aims to bring together university associations from around the world to discuss enhancing quality in higher education. Specifically, the document outlines that the meeting hopes to:
1) Provide a forum for associations to learn from each other's experiences and approaches to quality assurance.
2) Identify common services associations provide their members and recurring challenges regarding quality enhancement.
3) Explore potential initiatives for future collaboration on a global scale.
4) Increase awareness of IAU's policy statements and resources and encourage greater involvement from participant associations.

The document discusses how globalization and trade agreements like GATS have transformed higher education into a transnational system with new providers, programs, and delivery modes across borders. This has led to concerns about lack of quality control and the provision of substandard education, as well as the commercialization of higher education with a focus on profits over quality. Stricter oversight is needed from stakeholders to ensure quality assurance and consumer protections are in place for cross-border higher education.

This letter is signed by 17 universities and sent to the Department of Education regarding proposed regulations for state authorization of distance education programs. The universities express concerns that the regulations could impede progress in online education by increasing compliance burdens and costs. While they support reasonable consumer protections, they believe accreditation should be sufficient and that the regulations risk limiting access to high-quality online programs from nonprofit universities.

The document summarizes the results of a survey conducted by the International Association of Universities (IAU) regarding the role of university associations in enhancing the quality of higher education.
The survey found that the most common approaches to quality assurance adopted by university associations were promoting a quality culture within higher education institutions and program-level accreditation. Most associations aimed to raise awareness of quality issues through conferences, training, and disseminating best practices.
While roles varied, associations commonly provided information to members and students about quality assurance of education offered abroad. Regional associations in Europe had advanced the most in coordinating quality enhancement initiatives between countries. Governments and quality assurance agencies were also key actors in establishing frameworks and evaluating education quality
Post-Traditional Student Success the Key to National ProsperityInsideTrack
The document discusses doubling college enrollments in the US by 2020 through increasing post-traditional student completion rates. While 69% of institutions claim to track post-traditional student retention and completion, only 22% could provide current retention rates and 20% provide completion rates. Major obstacles to effective measurement include a lack of coordination, resource constraints, and cultural resistance to measurement. The document promotes continued work to raise awareness and share best practices to improve post-traditional student success.

Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.Christina Parmionova
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.

2. What is accreditation?
Accreditation as an external review and validation mechanism is not strictly identical with
legal validity or recognition by the State authorities.
In most countries, at least until recently, the Ministry of (Higher) Education is the only State
authority with the power to recognize institutions of higher education.
An emerging trend is for the Ministry of (Higher Education) to assign the accreditation
responsibility to a separate agency.
3. US influence and leadership
Starting in the early 2000s, the US model begins to have international ramifications, due to
US leadership in globalized higher education
The US is a different system because it has no national Ministry of Education. Its lose
equivalent, the US Department of Education, recognizes valid accreditors mainly through
the CHEA
US accreditation is mainly regional or specialized
US accreditation was a voluntary that is now de-facto a requirement to function, in
addition to US state authorization (licensure)
Each one of the 50 US state can have it own recognition rules
4. WTO, US, globalization, institutional vetting
Starting in the late 1990s and early 2000s, unaccredited, substandard
institutions become a US and global problem
Oregon ODA takes the lead as a vetting agency, but not without
controversy
Other States follow Oregon’s lead
US institution oppose global deregulation as led by WTO
Increasing challenges over comparability of educational systems and
degrees
European countries adopt ECTS and US Bachelor’s > Master’s >
Doctorate format
5. What about university consortia and joint-degrees?
In this context, university consortia and joint-degrees become more difficult to regulate
and accept because of conflicting sources of degree-authority and accreditation
Euclid consortium set up in 2006-2007, with accreditation from Ministry of Higher Education
of Chad and joint-degree authority not satisfactory for long term
After discussion with Oregon ODA, agreement on the label (2007): “not a degree-granting
institution. Please contact U. of Bangui for more information”
6. What about multilateral universities?
Several multilateral universities already in existence before 2008. They are
assumed to be recognized / accredited by virtue of their creation and
endorsement under international law
As subjects of international law, they are not directly subject to the national
framework (for instance World Maritime University in Sweden
Variety of legal status, degree-granting authority and relationship with
national authorities in headquarters country and other locations
United Nations University only becomes degree-granting in 2010, by
resolution of United Nations General Assembly
7. 2008: EUCLID open`MOU
In the 2008, EUCLID becomes the first multilateral institution to express State accreditation and
recognition by instrument of international law:
Article I:
“The Parties are participating in EUCLID (also properly called Pôle Universitaire Euclide and Euclid University)
which has legal personality, not-for-profit status, and such capacities as may be necessary to exercise its
functions and fulfill its objectives.
In order to ensure the international usefulness of the programs offered, EUCLID is chartered to confer
diplomas, degrees and completion certificates accredited by the ministries of Education of the
Participating Parties. EUCLID, a member of the Euclid University Consortium, receives the mandate to
facilitate universal access to higher education and to foster the acquisition of knowledge and
competencies under the supervision of the ministries of Education and Foreign Affairs of the Participating
Parties.”
EUCLID begins UN registration process and sends updates to international agencies. ODA status
updated (2008) to read: “ODA is currently evaluating the legal status of this entity” (in US law,
States cannot actually evaluate the legal status of treaty-entities apart from US Federal law)
8. Accreditation until 2011
For EUCLID, accreditation is programmatic (programs inherited from Euclid Consortium)
and under international law, but headquarters agreement necessary to obtain national
Ministry of Education accreditation processes and label.
Other intergovernmental universities also begin national accreditation if possible, for
instance UNU seeking accreditation in Japan and University of Peace accreditation in
Costa Rica.
US accreditation not necessary for non-US institutions, but DETC US agency begins
accrediting non-US institutions.
9. 2011: CAR accreditation
EUCLID certified as a recognized / accredited institution under headquarters processes
and agreement; obtains AAU then IAUP membership
Publication by United Nations of EUCLID treaty in December 2010 critical steps in providing
verifiable confirmation of authority and legal status by trusted third party
EUCLID includes academic validation processes and certification for new Participating
States
Several governments file statements of recognition and accreditation with US Department
of State
10. 2012: UN clarification
December 2012: United Nations Secretariat clarifies
that EUCLID and 4 other UN-related institutions
(United Nations University, World Maritime University,
European University Institute, IMO Maritime Law
Institute) are recognized a being accredited, even
as some are undergoing national processes
11. 2012-2013: Timor-Leste and Gambia
Instruments of Participation for Timor-Leste
first to provide for academic verification
and validation by national authority
(Ministry of Education)
Gambia headquarters agreement
provides for specific agreement with
Ministry of Higher Education and issuance
of Official Circular
12. December 2013: completion of US processes
EUCLID vetting processes completed with 3 States (Maine, Michigan, Oregon) with 1 last
State in legal review toward completion (2015)
United Nations University, University for Peace and World Maritime University also benefit
from EUCLID processes
