Abstract

This article examines international studies on the standardization of quality management systems in higher education, namely: a comparison of The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standards and the provisions of the Standards and Recommendations for Quality Assurance in the European Higher Education Area (The Standards) and guidelines for quality assurance in the European Higher Education Area (ESG). The standards ISO 9001, ISO 9001: 2000, ISO 9001: 2015 and ISO 21001 have been analyzed.The article analyzes the study of the interaction of ISO standards and the provisions of ESG investigated that presented in the works of S.Ortega, N.Señal, L.Velón Sixto "Experiments using iso 9001 to meet ESG in three spanish agencies"; A.Jambor, M.Dzubakova, J.Habanbk «Integration of ESG 2015 and ISO 9001: 2015 standards in higher education organization (case study)»; F.Camilleri «Standardizing Management Systems for Educational Organizations: Implications for European Higher Education». The study concludes that ISO 9001 standards for quality management systems enable institutions to create a quality assurance system and improve basic quality assurance processes. The ISO 9001 quality management system standard is a good tool for organizations to improve their internal quality assurance system and to be aware of their processes. Scientists say ISO 9001 provides ESG standards with an adequate system to support effective quality improvement. It is positive that the international ISO standard and ESG provisions for the establishment of a quality assurance system in higher education are in the mix. The ISO 21001 series "Educational Organizations –Management Systems for Educational Organizations" provides a methodological component and a typical industry template from the beginning of monitoring to the release of results, including preparatory work on assessment planning, questionnaire development, questionnaires, results processing, problem determination and options, further monitoring of performance. In higher education, ISO 21001 may not be seen as a competitor or replacement for ESG, but as an additional tool that can help educational organizations demonstrate their commitment to effective educational management practices.
