ABSTRACT

The acreditation is the result of applying an auto-evaluation system and an external evaluation directed to publicly recognizing that an institution or program fulfills definite requirements of quality, and several considerations on that are exposed. The main documents of the Evaluation and Accreditation System of the Post-grade Specialties of the Republic of Cuba were reviewed. They include the Regulations, the Pattern of Quality and the Evaluation Guideline, considering that during many years the post-grade specialties have been the main pillar of the professional activities in organizations like the Ministry of Public Health. There are exposed several aspects on how the Medical University of Matanzas is being prepared to carry out the evaluation processes of the quality and of the different specialties that are in conditions of performing their own evaluation and undergoing the external evaluation to be accreditated.
