ПРИВАТНО ИЛИ ДРЖАВНО ОБРАЗОВАНИЕ – ПОСТОИ ЛИ ЛОЈАЛНА КОНКУРЕНЦИЈА? АКРЕДИТАЦИЈА НА ПРИВАТНИТЕ УНИВЕРЗИТЕТИ ВО МАКЕДОНИЈА
The main issue during the Macedonian 2006 election campaign was the state of the economy. This was not a surprise given that the growth of the Macedonian economy has been low since democratszation, foreign direct investments incidental, and the standards of living falling. Good education, qualified human resources, are the key for progress in the modern world, an area where Macedonia seriously lags behind. The fact is that the majority of the Macedonian citizens have primary school education or less. It is difficult to attract higher value added investments with unqualified cheap labour. The goal of this analysis is to discuss particular issues affecting the low quality of the Macedonian education system. This policy brief sets out to find out if there is fair competition between private and public universities, how new universities are accredited, what are the problems in the procedure and how to rectify them. The focus of this analysis is therefore on the work of the Accreditation Board.
