3 New Accreditations for Altınbaş University

Altınbaş University, which takes decisive steps to provide a good education to its students with the vision of an entrepreneurial, innovative and competitive university, which ensures that students' horizons are constantly broadened with its strong academic staff that adds value to universal knowledge, international structure and collaborations, has registered its quality with 3 new accreditations. Altınbaş University Vice Rector Prof. Dr. Argun Karacabey mentioned that the understanding of education has reached certain standards over time and stated that the accredited programs represent the contemporary standards in that field.
Following the accreditation application made to ILAD, which has the "Quality Assessment Registration Certificate" issued by the Higher Education Quality Board, Altınbaş University Faculty of Fine Arts and Design Radio, Television and Cinema Program, which was evaluated by İLEDAK, was accredited for 2 years and was entitled to receive the İLAD accreditation certificate.
Psychology and Sociology programs of the Faculty of Economics, Administrative and Social Sciences were also accredited for two years by FEDEK, which has the "Quality Assessment Registration Certificate" issued by the Higher Education Quality Board, a leading accreditation institution in its field with its innovation and continuous development. 
"Accreditation expresses contemporary standards"
Making evaluations on the subject, Vice Rector Prof. Dr. Argun Karacabey pointed out that the understanding of education has changed over time and has reached certain standards, and stated that accredited programs have contemporary standards. Prof. Dr. Karacabey said that accreditation bodies follow universal values and developments and ensure that accredited programs comply with them, and emphasized that the accreditation process is therefore also important for students.
According to Prof. Dr. Karacabey, thanks to the external evaluation in the process, the deficiencies and weaknesses of the institutions that they could not realize in themselves are clearly revealed, so the process already reveals an improvement and an effort to get better, regardless of the outcome. In addition, the internal evaluation efforts initiated as soon as this process begins are also important in terms of strengthening and accelerating the improvement efforts. Karacabey continued his words as follows:
"Even taking the risk to enter the accreditation process shows how much that institution is willing to develop and improve itself, and that it wants to get out of the process healthier by strengthening these weaknesses instead of being afraid of its possible deficiencies and weaknesses and hiding them. Being accredited undoubtedly means that these efforts and efforts are rewarded. In this respect, accredited institutions have an important place in the preferences of students not only because they prioritize and give importance to development, but also because they meet certain standards."
