Through self-evaluation, universities can identify strengths and weaknesses in their study programs and take measures to improve their quality. In this sense, the active participation of educational stakeholders in the self-evaluation process is crucial to achieve a comprehensive and effective evaluation. The following study evaluates the participation of 736 educational stakeholders in the self-evaluation of a university in Peru, in order to determine its impact on the accreditation process and on educational quality. A quantitative approach methodology and simple descriptive design is used, and a checklist is used to evaluate compliance with the self-evaluation criteria and indicators. The results indicate that the active participation of educational stakeholders is a determining factor in assuring educational quality and advancing in the process of accreditation of study programs. In conclusion, the study suggests the need to promote the active participation of educational actors in the accreditation process and the self-evaluation culture in order to achieve quality education.
