Journal Title: Проблеми економіки - Year 2014, Vol 2014, Issue 3
Abstract
The article discusses the problems of increasing effectiveness of higher education by means of improving its management. Primary instruments of higher education quality assurance in Ukraine and developed countries are considered, among them accreditation, audit, monitoring, and evaluation. It is proven that developmental rigidity of higher education can be viewed as a criterion for assessment of graduates‘ training quality. A method of its calculation on the basis of ratings and statistical data is proposed. It is based on the comparison of principal indices of system functioning with the so-called reference ones. Groups of indices describing education rigidity constituents are used as indicators, namely: economic weight, external influences, and temporal parameters. Such evaluation is justified by factual comparison of education systems and clarity of utilization of relative values. A scheme of evaluation procedures is developed. The credibility of the obtained value is determined by the accuracy of original assessed values and data sources. The proposed approaches to evaluation of activities of higher education establishments through calculation of rigidity of the educational system allow establishing its numerical value and using it in the analytical efforts aimed at optimization of higher education management.
