The Central Asian Association for accreditation of education (CAAAE) held a certificate presentation ceremony on May 28, 2025, following the successful completion of international accreditation by educational programs of leading universities in the region. One of the main participants was the K. I. Satpayev Kazakhstan National Research Technical University, the flagship of technical education in Kazakhstan. The University’s educational programs have been officially included in the Central Asian Register of Accredited Educational Programs, confirming their compliance with unified regional and international quality standards.
The creation of this registry has become a logical continuation of the integration processes in the education sector of the Central Asian countries. In 2015, the Khujand Agreement was signed, under which Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan agreed to develop and implement common standards for higher education.
The next stage was the signing of the Almaty Agreement in December 2023, on the basis of which the Central Asian Federation for Quality Assurance in Education (CAFEQA) was established and the Central Asian Registry was established, synchronized with European databases (EQAR, DEQAR) and supported by reputable international organizations (ENQA, ENAEE, etc.).
The CAAAE, as a full member of international associations in the field of education quality, continues to actively work to strengthen the academic reputation of universities in the region, ensure international recognition of qualifications and expand academic mobility.
