Verify Programs Through the Approved Accreditation Scope
Where verification concerns a particular program or educational provision, the applicable institutional record and approved accreditation scope should be reviewed.
Programs and educational provision included within an ACISC-accredited institution’s approved accreditation scope are connected with the institution’s international institutional accreditation and applicable continuing accreditation requirements.
The institutional record therefore connects program information directly with the accredited institution and its approved accreditation scope.

Read Accreditation Status Together With Scope and Dates

The institutional accreditation record reflects ACISC’s accreditation framework connecting standards, institutional evidence, external evaluation, professional review, formal decision-making, accreditation status, approved scope and continuing accreditation.

Monitoring
Continuing accreditation connects institutional status with applicable reporting, monitoring and review requirements.
Verification

Use the ACISC accreditation number as an additional identifier for the applicable institutional record.
Country & Location
