Abstract

This study aims to introduce the evolution of Vietnam's institutional evaluation and accreditation system and the current evaluation criteria. Accordingly, this study examines the overall development of Vietnam's institutional evaluation and accreditation system and summarizes the evaluation criteria. Vietnam began to pay attention to the quality of higher education in the 2000s. In 2003, the Vietnam Education Quality Review and Evaluation Agency was established by the Ministry of Education. In 2004, the Interim Regulations on Accreditation and Evaluation of Higher Education Institutions were issued, and for the first time, Vietnam started its own accreditation and evaluation of higher education institutions. In 2005, the Education Law was amended to provide a legal basis for accreditation, and in 2007, official regulations were issued to replace the 2004 interim regulations, providing a solid legal foundation. In 2013, the Center for University Assessment and Accreditation was established under Hanoi National University. In 2017, the Center completely changed the evaluation indicators used until now, replacing them with new ones based on the evaluation indicators of the ASEAN University Network (AUN). Based on these findings, we outline recommendations for higher education in Vietnam and implications for higher education in Korea.
