Quality is a very principle of Ecuadorian education. The aim of the manuscript is to describe, through bibliometric indicators, the scientific production indexed in the broad-spectrum Web of Science database related to educational quality in the context of Ecuadorian education. The research is descriptive, comparative and retrospective, 15 documents were selected using search equations applied to the Web of Science database. The results provide indicators of production, visibility, impact and collaboration, identifying a decreasing production rate with a variation rate of -85.71%. It is concluded that there is little interest in carrying out studies that lead to understanding and proposing processes that improve educational quality, and the studies carried out in the study period focus on determining various strategies that allow improving the quality of Ecuadorian education, especially in educational management and evaluation, as well as the curricular adaptation inherent in student training processes.
