  • AAALAC International is a private, nonprofit organization that promotes humane treatment of animals in science through a voluntary international accreditation program. AAALAC International accreditation is recognized around the world as a symbol of high quality animal care and use for research, teaching and testing, as well as promoting animal welfare. Animals owned by the institution that are used for research, teaching and testing are included as part of an accredited program. More than 990 animal care and use institutions in 42 countries around the world (more than 170 programs in 13 countries in the Pacific Rim region) have earned AAALAC International accreditation. The AAALAC International Council on Accreditation evaluates overall performance and all aspects of an animal care and use program, involving an in-depth, multilayered, confidential peer-review process. The evaluators (site visitors) consider compliance with applicable local animal legislation of the host country, institutional policies, and employ a customized approach for evaluating overall program performance using a series of primary standards that include the Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals, the Guide for the Care and Use of Agricultural Animals in Research and Teaching, or the European Convention for the Protection of Vertebrate Animals Used for Experimental and Other Purposes, Council of Europe (ETS 123), and supplemental Reference Resources, as applicable.

  • 본 논문은 ALA 인증 문헌정보학교를 분석하는 것이 연구의 목적이다. 현재 ALA 인증위원회로부터 인증받은 석사과정 문헌정보학교는 57개교이다. 57개교가 기본 데이터이며, 이 정보원을 이용하여 다각적으로 분석하였다. 즉, 개교 연대, 개교시 학문명칭, 어떤 시기에 학과가 가장 많이 개설되었는지, 학문의 개정명칭, 어떤 학위과정의 프로그램 등이 개설되었는지를 분석하고자 하였다. 여기에서 얻은 결과를 한국의 문헌정보학의 교육의 향상성과 그 방향을 결정하는데 타산지석으로 삼고자 하였다.

  • 본고는 대만고등교육 평가체제를 대상으로 심아 이를 심층적으로 이해하는데 목적을 두었다. 대만은 2005년 고등교육평가중심기금회(Higher Education Evaluation & Accreditation Council of Taiwan)라는 전담독립기구를 신설하여 평가를 수행하고 있다. 평가의 종류는 대학경영 전체를 평가하는 대학종합평가(校務評鑑), 학문분야평가(系所評鑑), 그리고 특정항목의 산출결과를 통계화하여 대학간 우열을 비교하는 업적평가(績效評鑑)의 세 가지 방식으로 수행하고 있다. 인증제는 학문분야평가에만 적용하고 있다. 평가방법은 먼저 자체평가보고서를 제출한 후 방문평가를 거쳐 평가보고서를 작성하고 결과를 공포하는 일반적인 순서로 접근하고 있다. 평가결과는 통과, 대기관찰, 미통과의 3개로 구분되는데 2008년 6월의 발표에 의하면 미통과 비율이 총 15.7%에 달하였다. 미통과된 대학은 입학정원에 있어 불이익을 받으며 다음해에 추수평가를 받도록 하고 있다. 한편 평가결과에 대한 도태제 적용, 업적평가의 순위 발표에 대한 논란이 제기되고 있으며, 평가위원의 자질 향상, 평가지표의 불합리 등에 대한 문제도 제기되고 있다. 대만의 이러한 특성과 문제는 우리 고등교육평가에도 유의한 시사점을 제공하고 있다.

  • Following the opening of eleven medical schools in Korea in the 1980s, the issues of standardization and accreditation of medical education came to the forefront in the early 1990s. To address the medical community's concern about the quality of medical education, the Korean Council for University Education and Ministry of Education conducted a compulsory medical school evaluation in 1996 to see whether the medical schools were meeting accreditation standards or not. The evaluation was a "relative evaluation" rather than an "absolute evaluation." The Accreditation Board for Medical Education in Korea (ABMEK), established in 1998, was a mere voluntary organization, but with the full support of the Korean medical community, it successfully completed its first cycle of evaluations on all 41 medical schools from 2000-2004. The history of medical education evaluation activities, including those of ABMEK, was not well recorded. In 2004, ABMEK changed its name to the Korean Institute of Medical Education and Evaluation (KIMEE) as a corporate body and the government paid much attention to its voluntary accreditation activities. In 2014, the Ministry of Education officially recognized the KIMEE as an Institute for Accreditation of Higher Education Evaluation. The most important lesson learned from the history of ABMEK/KIMEE is the importance of cooperation among all medical education-related organizations, including the Korean Medical Association.

  • The accreditation review against engineering technological education just started in 2010. This study was conducted to get the significant implications for the accreditation of engineering technological education in Korea from the case of USA and Australia which have reviewed the engineering programs for long time. We can identify some differences between three countries. We suggested the three implications for ABEEK. First, ABEEEK needs to provide the definite graduates attributes to achieve. In that point, Stage 1 competency standard of Australia can be a good example which provide competency elements and indicators of attainment as well. Second, ABEEK needs to consult the course-embbeded evaluation for programs to check whether graduates achieve the graduates attributes. Third, ABEEK needs to benchmark the cases of USA and Australia to alleviate the paperwork load.

  • Objectives: The objective of this review article was to verify the accreditation plan of the Korean council on school of public health(KCSPH). Methods: Two data were used in order to review the topic of this article. The first one was a catalog compiled by journal articles published in Korea. Second data was accquired from websites created by 24 member universities of KCSPH. Results: The issue of accreditation has been discussed officially for decades. The confusion in the essence of public health seems to be intensified by the influence of Japanese health education system. Accordingly current SPHs in Korea are relatively multifarious and seem to suffer from an identity problem. Conclusions: The accreditation plan issued by KCSPH is valid and public health problem in Korea.

  • 호주와 홍콩은 국가자격체계가 잘 갖춰져 있는 국가로 다양한 고등교육기관과 고등교육수준 프로그램에 대한 질 관리와 인증이 운영되고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 호주와 홍콩의 고등교육기관 평가인증 사례를 비교 분석하여 국내 평가인증체제에 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다. 이를 위해 Kis(2005)의 분석틀을 수정 및 보완하여 호주의 고등교육질관리기구(TEQSA)와 홍콩의 학술 및 직업자격평가 심사국(HKCAAVQ) 사례를 분석하였다. 호주와 홍콩의 고등교육기관 질 평가 보증은 공통적으로 '인증(accreditation)' 을 강조하고, 아울러 고등교육 수준의 자격, 학위, 교육프로그램의 질 인증을 위해 별도의 평가기관을 운영하고 있었으며, 해당 기관에서 인증평가를 실시하고 있다. 호주와 홍콩의 사례를 살펴보았듯이 우리나라의 고등교육 학제 및 자격체제와는 상이하기 때문에 직접적으로 고등교육기관 평가기준을 적용하기에는 제한이 있지만, 국가 간 고등교육 인적 자원을 교류하는 차원에서 국제적인 통용성을 고려하여 고등교육 질 관리 기준을 참고하여 고등교육기관 평가를 실시하는 것이 필요할 것이다.

  • The purpose of this study is to provide the comparative study results for the purpose of the developing continuing professional educational systems for Korean pharmacists. The professional continuing educational systems of the UK, USA, Japan and Korea were analyzed. General Pharmaceutical Council in UK controls the pharmacy professions for the protection of the health of the citizens in UK and certifies the schools of pharmacy and the continuing education providers. The USA and Japan have the several accreditation bodies for the pharmacy education and the continuing pharmaceutical education. However, the quality assurance systems in Korea for the continuing education and specialty programs are not implemented, yet. The renewal system of the pharmacist license should be introduced like the health care providers like doctors to improve professionalism. Finally, it is recommended that all of these things should be done by a single administrative authority such as Korean Accreditation Council for Pharmacy Education.
