Revealing the qualifications of the education given in the higher education process with the principle of transparency and reliability emerges as a result of the Bologna process. In this dynamic process, the evaluation of the components of the educational programs and the methods used to reach the determined targets by independent organizations and repeating this evaluation periodically is great importance in terms of improving the quality of education, training, research activities and administrative services. Quality assurance is a requirement for universities to fulfill their basic functions such as education and academic productivity in a qualified way and to be able to integrate with the European Union. Quality assurance in education is only possible through the use of evaluation and accreditation methods that universities will adopt. National and international accreditation should be considered not only as a goal to achieve quality assurance, but also as a means to identify the changes necessary to capture and protect contemporary education.
