Abstract

Higher education, which has a wide stakeholder structure with many actors at different levels, from international organizations to students, has a complex structure in which various actors are intertwined. Quality assurance is one of the policy areas that represents this complexity with many stakeholders at the international, national and institutional level. Quality assurance is an important issue in the Turkish higher education system and improvements are needed in this area. Massification and internationalization activities in higher education have brought quality problems to the fore. It is important to design a quality assurance system so that Türkiye can compete internationally and achieve qualitative growth. The focus of this study is the institutional leadership role of the Higher Education Quality Council (THEQC). It is important for THEQC to assume an effective leadership role in the development and implementation of quality assurance processes. The aim of the study is to analyze the quality processes in higher education and develop recommendations based on this in the center of the institutional leadership role of YÖKAK in the quality assurance system.Within the scope of the study, the development and implementation of quality assurance in the Turkish higher education system, the issues that should be done during the development phase in order to respond qualitatively to the quantitative development of quality assurance processes, and the improvement of the current leadership role of YÖKAK were emphasized. Document analysis method was used in the study. The institutional leadership role in quality processes has been tried to be interpreted by reviewing the provisions in the Constitution on the basis of the duties and responsibilities of CHE, and the regulation and other institutional or text-based documents regarding the quality assurance system for the development of the quality assurance system.
