Abstract

The Accreditation is the public and temporary recognition of the educational institution, program or professional career that has participated in a process of evaluation of its institutional management, and, in areas of social link, research and academia. The university accreditation is part of the process of quality management that includes the evaluation and sometimes the categorization of institutions and careers. From the World Conference on Higher Education held in Paris in 2009, higher education was defined as a social public good, in which States must ensure their quality. This research analyzes initiatives established in Latin America, the United States and the European Space in the search to guarantee quality under the conceptual axis of accreditation, examining the pertinence of categorization in the Ecuadorian experience.
