The increasing cross-border mobility of dental school or dental hygiene students, educators, practitioners, programs and providers takes challenges for existing national quality assurance and accreditation frameworks and bodies, as well as for the systems for recognizing foreign qualifications. The new dental hygiene accreditation system was introduced to encourage the improvement of dental hygiene programs, to ensure the quality of education and, most of all, to establish an internationally compatible system of evaluation and accreditation. The accreditation procedure takes 1 year to complete. The result of the accreditation is released after evaluation via self-study report, site visit, preliminary draft report, responses from the institution and the results from the conciliation and review committees. The result from the accreditation procedure is either 'accreditation' or 'no accreditation'. Accredited schools receive one of several statuses following the evaluation. These are next general review, interim report and interim visit or suspension. Dental healthcare quality is not improved instantaneously, but instead gradually through continuous communication within the dental field. For this accreditation system to be successful, the following are essential: the accreditation agency should adopt hygiene education accreditation; it needs to become financially independent and managed efficiently; the autonomy and regulations surrounding the system need to be balanced; the professionalism of the system is ensured; and the dental field which includes not only dental program, but also hygiene program, needs to play an active role in the operation of the system.

The purpose of this study was to examine the maintenance of an evaluation accreditation indicator according to child care center teachers' participation in decision making. The subjects of this study were 139 teachers from 12 accredited national, public, private, and corporate child care centers in Seoul and North Gyeongsang Province. The TIP-2 (Teacher Involvement and Participation Scale V.2) and Accreditation Indicator for Child Care Centers were used to measure teachers' participation in decision making and accreditation indicator maintenance. Frequency, mean, standard deviation, one-way ANOVA and scheffe test were used for data analyses. The results revealed that the teachers who rated middle and high level in terms of their participation in decision-making showed higher levels of maintenance of the evaluation accreditation indicator than those with low levels of participation. This finding suggests that teachers' participation in decision making is an important factor for maintaining the quality of child care centers.

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.

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.
