Abstract

This study displays the Yemen experience in the field of quality assurance and academic accreditation for post secondary institutions to build on when constructing quality assurance and academic accreditation for general education. It aims at identifying the implementation level of postsecondary institutions of evaluation activities required for quality assurance and academic accreditation through the opinions of those who are in charge of this process and others involved in it. It also aims at identifying needs that help in applying quality assurance in post-secondary institutions in Yemen Arabia، hurdles faced، and proposing suitable solutions at the individual، institutional، and system levels. The two researchers have applied a questionnaire at purposeful sample consisting of those who are in charge of evaluation and quality assurance activates and those interested in it at their universities. Interviews were also conducted to specify the practicing level of evaluation for individuals، programs، and institutions، and its barriers. Results showed that there are differences amongst the universities in regard to implementing evaluation and tools for quality assurance and accreditation purposes. The main implementation barriers were the lack of sufficient knowledge and training. The researchers stressed the necessity of adopting capacity building model to assess training needs for individuals، programs، and institutions. This model can be used to design graded and detailed training programs that fit each university، and the implementation and monitoring of it should happen at each university site.
