Abstract	In 2013, the National Academy of Education's (NAEd) report on teacher education program evaluation in the United States provided a substantial synthesis of how the nation approaches quality assurance for teacher education programs (Feuer et al., 2013). The United States, having no federal requirements for such quality assurance, proves to be a complex nation to characterize in generalized terms. The report raised the question of how other countries evaluate teacher education programs and whether their experiences can be relevant and informative in the U.S. context. The answer to this question was addressed in the 2013 report with only some brief illustrations of globally well-known jurisdictions. Since that report was released, some comparative analyses and syntheses of teacher education program evaluation approaches have been published, adding to a understanding of global trends in this area. this paper revisits the original question of how teacher education programs are evaluated in international contexts. While several international comparative studies of teacher education in general now exist, the researchers found that a focus on how programs are held accountable to quality assurance standards is a relatively unexplored area of comparative analysis. [For the 2013 report, "Evaluation of Teacher Preparation Programs: Purposes, Methods, and Policy Options," see ED565694.] (ERIC).
