| Sumario: | Several accreditation agencies in Latin America introduce their standards and guidance for documentation but they do not explicitly elaborate on the key performance indicators on which higher education institutions can rely for evaluating their activities. The purpose of this research is to analyse the management indicators that higher education institutions in the region have implemented to identify those that have more impact in obtaining an institutional accreditation. A quantitative survey of 114 institutional leaders from 97 universities in 11 countries identified the management indicators. Findings in this research may serve as guidelines for leaders and practitioners to decide which indicators to implement and help institutions in the region to succeed in national and international institutional accreditation processes. |
