However, with increased demand comes considerable variation in the quality of the supply. As higher education is an expensive endeavor for all stakeholders ? governments, funders, employers, and families ? there are also increasing expectations for accountability and demonstrations of quality. English as a foreign language (EFL) programs, in particular, are under considerable pressure to substantiate their value, resulting in a significant rise in interest around their quality. This volume is the outcome of a May 2018 international conference on quality and specialized accreditation, held in Turkey. The book?s three sections take the reader from the global to the program level, examining trends and best practices in quality assurance and accreditation in EFL programs. The book?s geographic focus is primarily the Middle East and Turkey, yet the issues discussed herein a quite global in nature. This volume will be of interest to educational administrators at the institutional or program level, educational leadership programs focusing on higher education, language teacher preparation programs, and administrators in centralized education systems or accrediting organizations. 606 $aLanguage and languages$xStudy and teaching 606 $aSchool management and organization 606 $aSchool management and organization 606 $aEducation and state 606 $aEducation, Higher 606 $aInternational education 606 $aComparative education 606 $aLanguage Education 606 $aOrganization and Leadership 606 $aEducational Policy and Politics 606 $aHigher Education 606 $aInternational and Comparative Education 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aSchool management and organization. 615 0$aSchool management and organization. 615 0$aEducation and state. 615 0$aEducation, Higher. 615 0$aInternational education. 615 0$aComparative education. 615 14$aLanguage Education. 615 24$aOrganization and Leadership. 615 24$aEducational Policy and Politics. 615 24$aHigher Education. 615 24$aInternational and Comparative Education. 676 $a378 676 $a371.2 702 $aStaub$b Donald F$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910349347403321 996 $aQuality Assurance and Accreditation in Foreign Language Education$92527419 997 $aUNINA
