Abstract
"Education" is very costly especially education of good quality. The traditional face to face within walls of a classroom mode of education have been used for a long long time and it was considered as the onlymode to provide quality education. This paper examine the structure, validity, and reliability of the "Quality Assurance" system applied within traditional education. It attempts to elucidate the possibility to maintain this same spirit of quality assurance in the Continuing Education mode of implementation, while cutting down the costs through social involvement. This paper analyzes data derived from the actual experience of being the management institute for an inservice B.Ed (Hon) program for primary school teacher. This paper concludes that a mixed traditional and continuing educational mode could be an alternative in providing quality teacher education with reasonable cost, as long as system of "Quality Assurance" has been established and effective management was strictly adhered to.
