HelloPeter
What Is Accreditation?
When an institution or course is accredited, it is proof for students that the institution and their study programmes are recognised and that they meet educational quality standards.
Some of the set educational quality standards that must be met include:
- Qualified lecturers: lecturers must be properly qualified to provide lecturing on the specific programme
- Quality institution and services: quality administrative support must be provided, the institutions must have financial viability, and an appropriate infrastructure must be implemented
- Quality of textbooks and study materials: the syllabus and unit standards must be covered fully within the learning material
- Quality facilities: offices, examination rooms, and work environments must be safe and controlled
For a course to become accredited, it must go through several applicable reviewing processes by different examining, accrediting, and registering bodies.These processes will determine that the programmes and the institution providing them are in accordance with the quality standards.
Why Is Accreditation Important?
When a programme is accredited, it shows that the courses and course provider are:
- Nationally recognised
- In accordance with quality assurance requirements
- Meeting a need within the specific industry
- Going to provide good competency outcomes
- Giving a good base for assessments
Completing an accredited course will allow you to further your studies on a recognised level. These certified qualifications will help you to move further in your career path.
Accredited courses give you credibility which will increase your chances of getting hired.
What If Courses Are Not Accredited?
Courses that are not accredited have not been quality-checked by an external accreditation body.
Non-accredited courses still have value. These courses are seen as short courses or provider programmes. The quality of the courses depends on the institution that is offering them.
Short courses or provider courses usually offer specific training or specific skill sets that have been identified. This means that these courses still have value, they are just much more specifically tailored for personal growth or improving skills for hobbies.
