APQR, as an international, non-governmental, self-disciplined constraint and regulation activity for the QAAs, has played an important role in reviewing quality assurance. Firstly, this research makes a comparative analysis of APQR’s 8 QAAs under 11 criterion. Secondly, based on the Survey of Satisfaction Level of APQR Review, it is found that APQR review conforms to the concept of “the fourth generation evaluation”. From the review basis, APQR is a dynamic review under constructivism. From the review focus, APQR focuses on three aspects, i.e., openness, inclusiveness and credibility. From the review results, APQR flexibly uses four levels to conduct comprehensive review. Therefore, APQR has review experiences that can be used for reference, but it still needs to be improved in order to better achieve the goal of APQR’s sustainable development. |
