<p> * The management processes is not complete, yet often self-examination and evaluation trainging quality assurance system: Public VTCs have not he completed organizational structure and appropriated financial mechanisms. On the other hand, many leaders in VTC are less attention in the processes construction, but alsomade conservative administrative - focused management ways but not strongly apply quality management ways for the standards and procedures. This is evident in the majority of the public VTCs are not issued processes, constructing, adding, editing curriculums, test procedures, and teaching supervision and coordinated processes for solving jobs for graduated trainees. When issuing processes, procedures, leaders of public VTCs have consulted manager and teacher teams. However, some managers and teachers have not careful read and no specific comments on the processes, procedures. Some public VTCs has established procedures and described tasks of each department or individual, but not built criteria and specificindicators to task descriptions, it is difficult to assess work effectivelies of managers and teachers in the process. Thisis shown in the test procedures, graduation, awarding vocational certificates and procurement processes, use, and vocational training equipment maintenance. Becauseof the number of managers and teachers quite low, so leaders of public VTCs often evaluation of managers and teachers through observationsof daily activities, and the quality of the end product which they achieved. This is the type of assessment by administrative – focus management. While the nature of quality management is a management for standards and procedures. The direction of examination and evaluation of the work of departments and individuals not follow close to the criteria, indicators and not really follow the process and procedures. On the other hand,processes, procedures not clearly or inconsistent, so managers and teachers not really understand and comply withprocesses and procedures promulgated by public VTCs. Some managers and teachersbut have to follow the processes, but subjective missed some steps in the processes. For public VTCs have accredited quality, in the self-assessment stage only based machinery on standards and criteria have been issued by state, without regard to the construction of mechanisms and systems of the quality assurance and made the commitment to quality assurance is based on their practicalactivities. Most of public VTCs was arranged with charge officials of quality assurance, but no uphold responsibilities for maintaining and strengthening the quality assurance system. Therefore, after the end of the quality accredition, public VTCs are returned to the administrative management – focus way. </p>
