SOUZA, MARIANNE PEREIRA DE  and  REAL, GISELLE CRISTINA MARTINS. POTENTIALITIES OF THE ARCU-SUL SYSTEM FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A REGIONAL MODEL OF DEGREE RECOGNITION. Educ. rev. [online]. 2020, vol.36, e216226.  Epub June 15, 2020. ISSN 1982-6621.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0102-4698216226.

This work aims to investigate the potentialities of the regional evaluation policy, configured in the Accreditation System for University Courses of Mercosul, to build a model for recognition of degrees. Methodologically, this is a documentary research. Unconcerned of uncertainties about issues that are important for the implementation of regional policy, the data show that States Parties have made progress in building a permanent mechanism for the recognition of diplomas. In short, the Regional System is an efficient induction strategy, since it relates the results of accreditation with the regulation of diplomas. Accordingly, the system of Mercosul has the potential to determine quality in higher education and, consequently, to induce the recognition of degrees in the countries, based on a regional model.

Keywords : Mercosul; Educational Quality; Accreditation; Regulation.
