Certificación del personal pedagógico en Ucrania: Un análisis empírico de determinantes y perspectivas de cooperación internacional

Abstract

This study examined collaboration in the certification and evaluation of educators’ preparedness. It assesses attitudes of teachers and the influence of certification standards acceptance in comparison with international standards. A cross-sectional survey of 300 educators as respondents across colleges, schools, and higher education institutions (HEIs) in Ukraine was initiated. The key variables (competence in digital use, preparedness for certification, attitudes in order to obtain certification, and perceived barriers) were analysed. The analysis tools used in the study were descriptive statistics, correlation, t-tests, and multiple regression. The outcomes of the investigation revealed a notable relation among numerical competence as well preparedness for certification, while barriers had a negative correlation with preparedness. Educators who had international experience notably signified a higher level of preparedness. The importance of frameworks on international certification, especially those with Latin American origin are identified with emphasis on contemporary standards of teaching. It is suggested that international cooperation through UNESCO, EU, and OECD will improve the system of certification in Ukraine.
