Abstract: The study examined the relationship between international education accreditation and teaching and learning improvement in four non-public Higher Education Institutions (HEI) in Vietnam. With a qualitative multiple case approach, the study conducted in-depth interviews with 28 lecturers to collect data and then confirm the research model proposed. The study results showed that international accreditation has a positive impact on improving the learning and teaching activities in accredited programs of non-public universities, despite its burdensome, time and effort-consuming lecturers. The study contributes to a deeper understanding of accreditation by providing empirical evidence on the relationships between accreditation and teaching and learning and lecturer engagement. This study also provides valuable implications regarding quality assurance for researchers, university managers, policymakers, and lecturers.
