Abstract Summary
After the collapse of the USSR, the countries of the former Soviet Union established their own Ministries of Education. Despite their common history, each country now has a unique system of education in terms of educational structure, language of instruction, institutional recognition, and other factors. When searching for specific educational information, we are overwhelmed by the wealth of information stored in the ministerial websites. How do we search for lists of accredited recognized institutions, quality assurance bodies and online verification databases in various languages? These questions are always on the agenda of evaluators working with former Soviet countries.
