Classification of Types of Supervision (Control) over the Quality on Providing Educational Services by Higher Educational Institutions with Specific Learning Conditions

Abstract

Special attention is focused on the fact that supervision (control) over the quality of providing educational services in higher educational institutions, including those with specific learning conditions, can be internal or external, based on the content of legislative norms. The internal one is implemented within the framework of a higher educational institution by the structural divisions and their officials authorized to carry it out. External supervision (control), in turn, is divided into state and public. State control, in turn, is also not homogeneous, its differentiation according to certain types directly depends on the powers of the subject of its implementation. However, it is noted that such a classification is not exhaustive.

It is grounded that the main types of supervision (control) over the quality of providing educational services by higher educational institutions with specific learning conditions should include the following: 1) by subjects of implementation: a) external; and b) internal.
