The evaluation of studies and training in information technology: A multicriteria approach

The accreditation of information technology executive officers is being approached in this article as a problem of multicriteria decision analysis of professional skills, studies and vocational training. The proposed approach includes the analysis and modelling of the qualitative criteria that fall into the problem as well as the implementation of a set of multicriteria aggregation-disaggregation methods. In particular, it includes the presentation of the evaluation system for Basic, Postgraduate and Doctoral studies and Non-formal Vocational Training “with recognized” and “without recognized” title. For the evaluation of the Basic Studies a table has been drawn up with all the possible combinations based on the Greek model, and then the evaluation takes place through a multiplicative value function that has been assessed by a disaggregation method. The proposed evaluation approach is being applied to a particular example of candidate for accreditation.
