Accreditation is an incredibly important facet of your education. However, many people do not understand even the basics of the accreditation process. Before choosing a school, it is important that you have a clear picture of exactly who accredits the school and what that accreditation means for your future. Without accreditation, you will find yourself with a degree employers and institutions do not respect.
Accreditation bodies are the governing authorities, either government owned or under agreement with government, that establish the suitability of any participating certification body in that country to carry out audits. This is done by assessing systems and procedures, and monitoring performance.
