CMMI for educational institutions

摘要

We all know that Education constitutes one of the important foundations of any society. There are various levels of teaching institutes from the Ivy League to ordinary colleges. This gradation is a very informal and there are no formal mechanisms to classify (assess) and improve the standards in an institution. There are bodies like Washington Accord (International Engineering Alliance, www.washingtonaccord.org) which consists of six international agreements governing mutual recognition of engineering qualifications and professional competence. There are other National bodies like NBA (National Board of Accreditation - India) set up in September 1994, for the purpose of assessment of Quality and Accreditation of Technical programmes in India.
