The official survey to assess the quality of 07 training programs at the University of Social Sciences and Humanities was successfully completed.

Attending the closing ceremony, on behalf of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities were Prof. Dr. Hoang Anh Tuan (Rector), Assoc. Prof. Dr. Dang Thi Thu Huong (Vice Rector), Assoc. Prof. Dr. Dao Thanh Truong (Vice Rector), and heads of functional departments, representatives of the leadership of faculties and departments with accredited training programs, and a large number of lecturers and students of the university.
Representing the Thang Long Center for Educational Quality Assurance (TTKĐGD Thang Long) were Dr. Nguyen Thi Kim Phung (Director) and all members of the evaluation team for the 7 training programs, led by Prof. Dr. Dang Ung Van.
According to the plan, the official survey program of the Thang Long Center for Educational Accreditation of the Evaluation Team for 7 training programs of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities was scheduled to take place over 7 days from December 24-30. However, with a proactive and expeditious work spirit, the Evaluation Team completed the official survey one day earlier than expected. At the closing ceremony, representatives of the Evaluation Team presented a preliminary report on the results of the official survey of the 7 training programs of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities. The evaluation report acknowledged and highlighted the strengths and outstanding results of the 7 training programs being accredited this time: the objectives, the philosophy of "liberal education," the learning outcomes, and the curriculum descriptions were clearly expressed; the teaching structure was relatively reasonable; during the development of the training program framework, the University focused on soliciting feedback from stakeholders (students, employers), and developed many tools and software to support student self-study. The rate of student participation in scientific research is high; community service activities are regularly implemented. Regarding the teaching staff and support staff, a common strength of the 7 training programs is the development of a planning scheme for the teaching and specialist staff; strict recruitment standards and procedures; implementation of many policies to attract high-quality human resources; regular training and professional development as well as staff performance evaluation, etc.   In addition, the preliminary report of the Evaluation Team also pointed out some shortcomings and proposed solutions to further improve the quality of training programs: periodically reviewing objectives and learning outcomes; establishing a close connection between training objectives, learning outcomes, and assessment methods; regularly innovating the content of training programs and teaching methods; increasing the application of information technology in managing student information and assessment results; diversifying forms of support for students in their studies and lives; strengthening surveys of stakeholders regarding admission policies, criteria, and admission methods to better reflect actual needs, etc.
In the concluding section of the preliminary report, Professor Dang Ung Van affirmed: The Evaluation Team is fully confident that, with the efforts of the Board of Directors and all the faculty and staff of the University, the shortcomings of the 7 training programs will be improved soon, and the University of Social Sciences and Humanities will certainly continue to achieve even more success.
  Speaking at the closing ceremony, Rector Hoang Anh Tuan expressed his deep gratitude to the Accreditation Team. He acknowledged that the results recognized by the Accreditation Team were invaluable encouragement, but the suggestions and recommendations were even more significant. Over the past six days, the faculty members worked with a very rigorous yet sincere and humane spirit, accurately identifying the shortcomings of the seven training programs. With a spirit of openness and willingness to listen and make adjustments, the University commits to drastic reforms and improvements to enhance the quality of training after today's session, so that when the Accreditation Team returns for future audits, they will see the changes. As a university specializing in basic science education and research, the leadership always adheres to the strategy and motto: academic excellence as the foundation, but modernity as the trend. Therefore, continuous improvement and innovation are not only essential for enhancing the quality of training but are also crucial for the unit's survival and development in today's increasingly fierce competitive environment.Dr. Nguyen Thi Kim Phung, on behalf of the Thang Long Center for Quality Assurance in Education's leadership, expressed gratitude to the University of Social Sciences and Humanities for its cooperation and support over the past week, providing the best possible conditions for the Evaluation Team. Thanks to the high sense of responsibility and dedication of the Evaluation Team members, the official survey was completed early and effectively. The preliminary report of the Evaluation Team highlighted strengths that need to be promoted, but more importantly, pointed out areas that still need improvement and adjustment. This report is valuable not only for the accredited programs and the university but also has great significance for other higher education institutions. The University of Social Sciences and Humanities is always at the forefront of quality assurance in educational institutions and programs, and the university's success contributes to spreading the culture of accreditation and quality throughout the higher education system. Hopefully, in the future, the Center and the University will continue to implement more collaborative activities in the field of quality assurance to contribute to improving the quality of education of the University, of Hanoi National University, and of the entire education sector.
