Accreditation
General information on Accreditation
The International Education Association
is an association of Private Colleges, Schools and Educators organized to assist
Private colleges and Schools establish a third-party witness to the credibility of
their performance.
Every week of the year, Private Colleges and Schools across the globe are asked, "Are you an accredited school?"
The International Education Association has been organized in order that Private schools of all faiths can give an affirmative answer to the question of accreditation. We believe that this is an important function in the year 2000 and beyond, as private colleges and schools fight to keep their doors open in a world of economic and political uncertainty.
For institutions applying for an accredited status through the International Education Association this status is earned through academic, and fundamental day-to-day operations evaluation of the applicant institution. An experienced educational and building professional will review each institution’s application.
