The emergence of fully online, hybrid and blended forms of higher education has led
governments, quality assurance agencies and higher education institutions (HEIs) across
the OECD to reflect on how to ensure that digital education provides learners with
opportunities to reach learning and employment outcomes similar to those achieved
through traditional in person instruction. Building on stakeholder engagement and
comparative analysis, this report offers an assessment of Hungary’s quality assurance
system for higher education and, more specifically, its strengths and weaknesses for
assuring the quality of digital higher education. It offers recommendations and policy
options to support the ongoing reform of Hungary’s higher education accreditation
system as well as a list of potential digital education indicators to be integrated
in the assessment frameworks used by the Hungarian Accreditation Committee (MAB) for
the accreditation of higher education institutions.
