Quality in Education: What’s Next?

Last summer, I started a conversation with The Journal for Quality and Participation staff about publishing an issue in collaboration with the Education Division, focused on quality issues in higher education. This special issue on “Quality in Education” is the culmination of our joint effort. It has been a great experience, and on behalf of me Education Division, I wish to thank the editorial and production staff for the effort that made this issue possible.

We wanted to present articles that address the systematic issues of higher education and further the dialogue on improving the quality of higher education. For instance, Dr. Dew’s article discussed the many issues surrounding quality in higher education and reviewed what we can learn from the Baldrige Education Criteria for Performance Excellence. Dr. Padró’s paper reminded us of the importance of Dr. W. Edwards Deming’s System of Profound Knowledge in today’s education climate and discussed an extension that furthers its usefulness. Additionally, he focused on how this framework is useful for addressing accountability and accreditation issues.

Significantly, all three articles emphasized the importance of leadership in fostering a journey of continuous improvement in our colleges and universities.
