Many universities and colleges in the country have a long history, decades of developing culture, traditions and educational technologies that allow them today to offer the labor market graduates whose competence surpasses foreign specialists. Modern tendencies developments in education and the labor market dictate requirements for educational organizations to improve the quality and accessibility of vocational education. In conditions of increasing levels of control and requirements for educational organizations from the state, the labor market and consumers, and demographic decline, educational organizations constantly have to prove their advantages.

The legislation of the Russian Federation in the field of education predetermines trends in assessing the quality of education - professional and public accreditation of educational programs and public accreditation of educational organizations.

On the basis of the Russian Register, there is an agency for assessing the quality of education, which offers services for assessing the conformity of the quality of education, both at the institutional and program levels, with the requirements of international standards for management systems, European standards and recommendations for guaranteeing the quality of education ENQA, legal requirements in the field of guaranteeing the quality of education.

improving student training;

changing approaches to training and advanced training of workers in the field of education;

popularization of effective models of organizing the educational process;

increasing the diversity of educational programs in a single educational space.

NOKO is implemented through:

1. Attraction non-profit organizations and individuals to assess the quality of education

2. Coordination of the activities of all agents to improve the quality of conditions for the educational process

3. Improving the ways of organizing and content of the educational process

4. Measures to improve the quality, efficiency and accessibility of educational services

The results of the NOKO can be used by various groups to solve both professional and personal problems:

1. Students and their parents (for the purpose of choosing a place of study for themselves and/or their children)

a. to assess the current level of mastery of educational programs and changes in individual curricula;

b. to identify your own opportunities to continue education in certain programs;

Institutions carrying out educational activities, for analysis purposes:

a. analysis of the level of training of students and the circumstances influencing it

b. assessing the compliance of activities with the expectations of participants and/or other interested organizations;

c. determining a list of measures to improve the results and quality of educational services;

2. Interested organizations: to form common actions with the educational institution to change educational programs, etc.

3. Collegiate governing bodies of institutions providing educational services:

a. as a way to involve local representatives in the implementation of organizational development tasks, etc.

4. Federal and regional executive authorities: for making administrative decisions.

· create conditions for the development of educational organizations and the development of personnel for the implementation of NEC training of students;

· coordinate the work of participants in the NOC for training students;

Educational organizations: ensure the collection of the required information and its provision to the organization implementing the NFCS; provide conditions for conducting the assessment procedure in accordance with the instructional and methodological materials developed by the OKO organization; based on the results of participating in independent assessment procedures, develops an action plan to improve the quality of student training; ensures openness and access to information about the implementation of NQF PO at all its stages.

In Fig. Figure 1 shows a diagram of the interaction of elements that ensure the effectiveness of NOKO, compiled by T.A. Mertsalova. Unfortunately, the latest guidelines issued by the authorities and the experience of implementing the NCCO show that the role of the public and independent players is extremely low. In the regions where comprehensive education modernization projects have been created since 2007, the departmental system for assessing the quality of education has been well developed, Quality Assessment Centers, Education Monitoring Centers, Expertise Centers for the activities of educational organizations and similar organizations are successfully functioning.

This leads to the fact that the final products of NFCS often do not meet the needs of reference groups. It is no secret that territorial remoteness is a key factor in choosing a school. Based on this statement, it turns out that the TOP-500 rating, published annually by the Russian Ministry of Education and Science, cannot satisfy the requests Russian citizens. For example, a resident Altai Territory It will be difficult to choose a school from it, because out of more than 800 schools in the region, only 4 are represented in the ranking for the 2014-2015 academic year. At the same time, the lack of detailed and primary data does not answer the population’s request for information about general secondary education.

As a result, various problems of reference groups (parents, business, media, public organizations) remain unresolved.

School choice, kindergarten or university is often based on rumors, advice from friends, anonymous reviews on the Internet, rather than on studying better information. As a result, due to a lack of information, people chose far from the best best options getting an education.

A very important part of quality assessment is data that can be used to conduct NCQE and rating educational organizations. The key components of this system are:

· “closed” data, access to which is limited or completely closed. These include:

o state accounting information (statistical and administrative);

o departmental monitoring implemented by subordinate institutions;

o international monitoring (PISA, TIMSS, etc.);

"open" data

unstructured data:

o data from educational organizations themselves;

o data that can only be obtained from the public (for example, from consumers of educational services through opinion polls) .

When implementing and developing NOCO, a problem arises such as a lack of information about the activities of organizations. Often, only organizations affiliated with local authorities authorities in the field of education are organizations established by these authorities themselves for monitoring in the field of education. They have much more rights and powers to work with data than third-party organizations or individuals. The reports of these organizations are not often made public, and a conflict of interest is obvious: the educational institutions being assessed are subordinate and the organizations themselves that carry out the NQF often have the same founder.

Key role in this process open data can play. Open Data is the concept that data should be freely and freely available to all users and reusable without any restrictions or control on the part of the data publisher.

The role of open data here is to use it to solve any public problems. Data in itself is only important if its subject matter, quality and detail can help in some way. reference groups solve your problems. Tim Bernes-Lee introduced a five-star typology scale for open data quality:

First level: data is available in any format;

Second level: open data is posted in machine-readable format (xls, xlsx);

Third level: open data is presented in a non-proprietary format (CSV);

Level four: open data is published in open W3C standards (RDF and SPARQL);

Level five: Open data is linked to other data in a contextual manner.

Trends towards open data in the world have only begun in the last few years, but are actively taking over various industries: from ecology to law enforcement. Experience with open data in other areas shows the effectiveness of this mechanism when it comes to engaging individuals and organizations in the public sector:

· the opportunity for the public to contribute to improving the performance of public services;

· transparency;

· creation of new products;

· development of public and state relations ;

Thus, their more active use in education and, directly, in independent assessment of the quality of education can open up additional features to improve the quality of education and public involvement in this area.
