An Integrated Approach to Internal Monitoring as a Strategy for Improving the Quality of Education at National Pirogov Memorial Medical University, Vinnytsya

Annotation. The article discusses an integrated approach to internal monitoring of the quality of education as a strategy for improving the educational process at National Pirogov Memorial Medical University, Vinnytsya. One of the key elements of the concept of student-centered learning is the use of feedback mechanisms, in particular anonymous surveys, to consider the opinions of all participants in the educational process: higher education students, teachers, graduates and guarantors of educational programs. The study aims to assess the effectiveness of internal monitoring of the quality of educational services at the National Pirogov Memorial Medical University, Vinnytsya, analyze the level of satisfaction of the participants of the educational process with the organization of training, identify the strengths and weaknesses of educational programs, and develop recommendations for their improvement. To achieve this goal, an anonymous survey was used, which was conducted using electronic questionnaires on the Google Forms platform. The survey covered students of all levels, teachers, graduates and guarantors of educational programs. The data were analyzed and interpreted in the form of generalized statistical indicators, which allowed us to get a comprehensive picture of the level of satisfaction of the participants of the educational process with the quality of education, organization of the educational process, practical training and methodological support. The surveys showed that the majority of students are satisfied with the level of teaching and interaction with the university administration. At the same time, a number of problematic aspects were identified, including: insufficient level of practical training, the need to improve teaching materials, the need to expand access to modern medical databases and digital resources. The main recommendations based on the results of the study include: improving the level of practical training of students by increasing the time spent working with patients in clinics and using simulation centers; improving methodological support, including updating teaching materials and ensuring their compliance with modern educational standards; introducing new forms and methods of teaching focused on the development of practical skills and communication competence of students; improving the effectiveness of the feedback system. The results obtained will be used to further improve the system of internal monitoring of the quality of education at the National Pirogov Memorial Medical University, Vinnytya, as well as to develop measures aimed at improving the educational environment in higher medical education institutions in general.
