    Educational accreditation is a quality assurance process where educational institutions are evaluated by external bodies to determine if they meet applicable standards. If standards are met, accredited status is granted. While most countries conduct accreditation through government organizations like a ministry of education, the United States uses independent non-profit organizations to perform accreditation. The U.S. developed its accreditation process in the late 19th and early 20th centuries when educational institutions saw a need for better coordination between secondary and post-secondary levels and standardized requirements.

    Educational accreditation

    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


    Jump to: navigation, search

    Educational accreditation is a type of quality assurance process under which services and
    operations of educational institutions or programs are evaluated by an external body to determine
    if applicable standards are met. If standards are met, accredited status is granted by the
    appropriate agency.
    In most countries in the world, the function of educational accreditation is conducted by a
    government organization, such as a ministry of education. In the United States, however, a
    quality assurance process exists that is independent of government and performed by private
    non-profit organizations.[1] The U.S. accreditation process was developed in the late 19th century
    and early 20th century after educational institutions perceived a need for improved coordination
    and articulation between secondary and post-secondary educational institutions, along with
    standardization of requirements between the two levels.[
