On 5 December 2024, an important seminar was held at Sumy National Agrarian University, organised by the Department of Education Quality, Licensing and Accreditation. The main topic of the seminar was ensuring the quality of education and the specifics of accreditation of educational programmes.

The speaker of the event, Iryna Skliar, emphasised that accreditation is not only a mandatory procedure but also a tool that helps to improve educational programmes, make them competitive and meet modern challenges.

Key issues discussed at the seminar were as follows:

How to prepare educational programmes for accreditation?

What are the main requirements and recommendations of the National Agency for Higher Education Quality Assurance?

How to fill in the documentation correctly?

Why is it important?

Accreditation is the foundation for ensuring high standards of education. As Iryna Skliar noted, it is a mechanism that confirms the relevance of educational programmes to the modern labour market. In addition, accreditation promotes international recognition of diplomas and creates a positive image of the university.

We thank all guarantors, project team members and interested participants for their active participation, as well as the Department of Education Quality, Licensing and Accreditation for the excellent organisation of the event!

SNAU is about quality, innovation and success of every student!
