The results of the survey indicate that in Russian universities the most widespread models are quality assurance based on the requirements of state accreditation and a model based on ESG ENQA standards. Higher education institutions give priority to the development of basic documents to guarantee the quality of education at the institutional level without regulating the non-key aspects of education.

Universities are quite actively conducting surveys of students; it is on this group of interested parties that they emphasize the process of implementing feedback on the quality of education. It is common practice to discuss the results of analysis of surveys of stakeholders at the level of academic councils/senates. The most common quality assurance tools include: interviewing students, employers, teaching staff and employees on the quality of education, monitoring the employment and career growth of graduates, and professional and public accreditation. Most respondents indicated such priority problems as the lack of a unified model for ensuring the quality of education and the shortage of qualified personnel in the field of ensuring the quality of education.
