“…According to the literature, higher education quality is an extremely broad concept that includes many aspects (Harvey & Green, 1993;Kumar, & Sarangapani, 2004). Selecting the quality criteria is of top importance as it is a very complicated process that can involve a huge number of assessment options (Tambovtsev & Rozhdestvenskaya, 2020). Every country addresses this issue in its way, taking into account the national specifics, as doing otherwise may result in setting wrong benchmarks.…”

Purpose of the study: This article aims to examine professional public accreditation of educational programs as a means of ensuring that higher education remains relevant to the current socio-economic public needs in the context of shifting requirements of the labour market, digitalization of most areas of life, and new challenges in technical and technological development. Methodology: The methodological approaches to the examined phenomenon were different, which made it possible to comprehensively assess professional public accreditation of educational programs as a crucial element of independent assessment of education quality. A systems approach views professional public accreditation of educational programs as a set of measures. They aim to ensure the compliance of educational programs with the requirements of professional standards and employers' expectations. Principal Findings: the result of the study is the established need to develop professional public accreditation of educational programs in the system of independent assessment of education quality, which would make it possible to estimate the significant characteristics of an educational program and to determine whether its implementation in a specific timespan is necessary. Applications of this study: this study can contribute to the development of the specific practices of professional public accreditation of educational programs, and it can facilitate the development of the legal, theoretical, and organizational foundations of this type of public activity. Novelty/Originality of this Study: We made an attempt to analyse the role of professional public accreditation of educational programs in the system of higher education quality assessment. We studied its advantages and disadvantages, differences from other accreditation procedures, and we suggested the directions of its improvement taking into consideration the current legislation, interests of education organizations, students, their representatives, and employers.

“…However, the indicator of profitability is hardly applicable to public, mixed or credence goods. Therefore, in the field of education and science, where most of the goods produced are public or credence ones [Tambovtsev, Rozhdestvenskaya, 2020], non-market indicators are widely used to evaluate the effectiveness of organizations. These indicators are applied when introducing socio-economic policy and designing a variety of development and project management programmes.…”

Revolutionary technological change in the publishing business and the expansion of information technology have given an impetus for scientific journals institution to evolve with the development of bibliographic databases that create new information products, indicators, and indices. The Russian scientific journals institution, which plays a significant role in the Russian innovation system, is developing in line with this trend. The article analyses the Russian innovation system actors’ narratives regarding the role of journals in the functioning of the system. The methodological basis of the study includes theories and approaches of narrative economics and original institutionalism that allow focusing on the use of qualitative research methods. Narratives reflect actors’ ideas of publication activity indicators getting increasingly used in management practices in the field of education and science. These indicators have received special significance within the framework of the managerialism doctrine, or new public management, in which publication activity indicators were associated with the effectiveness of scientific research. The role of journals and indices is considered from two points of view: at the individual level actors talk about personal success in publishing articles in top-rated journals; however, at the level of science and education the role of publication activity indicators is described using negative connotations; actors refer to the situations as problematic. Further development of the Russian scientific journals institution should contribute to the formation of new foundations and organizational structures which allow taking into account and intensifying the grassroots initiatives of scientists and innovators.
