It first reviews the trends,international agendas, and model frameworks for the provision of transnational servicesin education. Drawing on professional experience as quality assurance practitioners,higher education policymakers, and transnational education teacher participants, theauthors critically reflect on recent development of joint programs in Vietnam pertainingto major quality assurance, decision making, partner selection, and curriculum issues.Corresponding solutions are then recommended with reference to aforementionedframeworks of effective practices. This paper offers both theoretical and practical viewsof transnational joint programs to inform key stakeholders in the enhancement ofinternational collaboration in higher education. It also hopes to contribute to a morepluralistic perspective of this international practice to the current research field.
