Abstract: Academic accreditation and assessment in Higher Education (A3-HE) is, above all, a social status meant to acknowledge that an institution or program is following recognized and requested quality criteria issued from common good practice. In a previous work, we described the main processes involved in A3-HE. Two main issues were reported. First, heavy and tedious paperwork characterizes actual academic processes. Second, subjective judgments might interfere with the processes. Indeed, both the internal self-examination undergone by institutions / programs and the external reviewing processes made by recognized accrediting bodies are prone to errors and subjective biases as they are largely based on rules of thumb human judgments – despite the presence of standards. In this paper, we describe a set of computational technologies to address these issues. Emphasis is made on technologies spanning (crude) data, information, refined information including decision suppor!
t, ultimately leading to the most refined and expensive piece of information, i.e., knowledge and its discovery in large and diversified databases over the Web, based on cloud computing solutions. A human-machine interactive knowledge-based learning control system for A3-HE is our far-reaching goal. However, the A3-HE processes are too complex to be addressed by computerized systems alone. As a result, scaling up to real-life applications still require much time to reach tangible implementations.
