International College of Health Sciences is now accredited by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges (ACCSC). ACCSC accreditation promotes institutional accountability by systematically and comprehensively evaluating institutions based upon criteria established via the Standards of Accreditation. Accreditation also serves an essential role in institutional and programmatic quality assurance as a critical component of the regulatory “triad” in partnership with federal and state governments that are responsible for the oversight of higher education institutions.
Accreditation seeks to assess and enhance the educational quality of an institution, ensure consistency in institutional operations, promote self-evaluation and institutional improvement, and provide for public accountability within a peer-review framework. ACCSC accreditation promotes institutional accountability by systematically and comprehensively evaluating institutions based upon criteria established via the Standards of Accreditation.
ACCSC is recognized by the United States Department of Education as the designated institutional accrediting body for over 650 post-secondary, trade and technical schools that provide education to over 150,000 students in a wide variety of vocational programs each year.
