Education is a gate to improving human resource quality in a country. It must be managed to achieve that target including higher education. Higher education that is well-managed can contribute to national development. Higher education should not be afraid of international accreditation or certification, because it can build their reputation and also the students’ reputation.

This research was conducted by studying literature about external quality assurance related to increasing international recognition in higher education. The advantages of international accreditation are to improve competitiveness.
