Accreditation of learning in a basic educational institution: systematic review

Abstract

His reviews focuses on analyzing the impact of accreditation processes on learning and the educational quality of basic level institutions. Accreditation is approached as a strategic tool to ensure quality standards, strengthen internal processes, and improve learning outcomes. The studies reviewed indicate that accreditation processes promote alignment with national and international standards that improve curriculum planning, infrastructure, and educational resources. This ensures a more effective and equitable learning environment. Some studies highlight that accreditation is associated with an improvement in specific competencies, such as written skills and critical thinking. However, these improvements are conditional in the effective implementation of evaluation standards and teacher training. Accreditation fosters a thoughtful and participatory approach, engaging faculty, students, and administrators in a cycle of continuous improvement. This includes identifying critical areas, such as deficiencies in teacher evaluation or lack of adequate resources, that need to be addressed to ensure effective learning. The identify significant barriers to accreditation, such as resistance to change, lack of funding, and administrative overhead. These difficulties can limit the scope of proposed improvements to learning plans.
