This research aimed to study the mediating role of core and specific competencies on relationship between organizational factors and educational quality assurance of Rajabhat Universities in Southern Region. The sample consisted of 474 staff who were operating on educational quality assurance of Rajabhat Universities in Southern Region in academic year 2013, obtained from the stratified random sampling by using the 5 Rajabhat Universities in Southern Region as sampling units. The research was based on quantitative methods, and used to examine the mediating role of core and specific competencies on relationship between organizational factors and educational quality assurance of Rajabhat Universities in the Southern Region. Data collection tool was a constructed 5 - level rating scale questionnaire. The statistics for data analysis was basic statistics including statistics, percentage, means, standard deviation, maximum value, minimum values, skewness, and kurtosis. The statistics used to test hypotheses which this time were Pearson Correlation Coefficient, and the structural equation modeling (SEM) by using path analysis.
The results revealed that the mediating role of core and specific competencies were found that both variables had the role as partial mediation, due to leadership variables (LS), participation (PC) and organizational management (OG) not only indirectly affected through the core and specific competencies but also directly affecting the quality assurance work. The results can be concluded that the specific competency was an important variable in connection between leadership, participation, and organizing to quality assurance operations rather than the core competency. In a reciprocal way, this conclusion does not mean that core competency was not important, but only less important.
