Accreditation of the carreers. A challenge from the University of Medical Sciences in Granma
Keywords:
accreditation, quality standard, accreditation variablesAbstract
Introduction: The System of Evaluation and Accreditation of University Careers (SEA.CU) has as its fundamental objective the continuous elevation of the quality of the process of formation in the university careers of the Republic of Cuba. The quality of the training of human resources in Health Sciences is in close interrelation with the quality of health services, since our educational processes are based on the combination of theory with practice and study-work in the welfare scenarios.
Objective: To implement an institutional strategy that allows the accreditation of Medicine and Stomatology careers at the Medical Sciences University of Granma.
Methodological Design: the technological development research is classified, whose product is the implementation of the strategy.
Results: a qualitative and quantitative leap has been achieved in each of the weaknesses detected in different accreditation variables in order that both careers be evaluated, accredited and certified in the short term by the National Accreditation Board of the Ministry of Higher Education.
Conclusions: The implementation of the designed strategy becomes a methodological strategic conception as a transforming mechanism of the continuous improvement of quality for the sake of the accreditation of careers.
