International Seminar on Quality and Affordable Education

BACKGROUND OF THE SEMINAR

International developments in education in the 21st century have long been seen as a way for researchers and academics to find appropriate solutions for issues in educational practice.

Data from the Education Development Index (EDI), countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Vietnam, Myanmar and Cambodia are  among nations listed in the EDI. Other countries such as Brunei Darussalam are listed at higher level in the list, suggesting that their level of education quality can be interpreted as somewhat low.

This means that efforts are needed to expand access to educational capabilities without regard for geographical or economic status and enhancing quality and relevance of eductaion. Another focus is to strengthen educational administration and education service accountability all over the world by 2015.

This international seminar is held annually by three prestigious universities. In the previous series, ISQAE had succeeded in attracting many professional academicians to present their findings and created many opportunities for academic networking among participants.
