In today’s rapidly evolving educational landscape, credibility and trust are the cornerstones of success. Whether you lead an innovative digital university or manage a specialized online program, earning accreditation from the International Accreditation Council for Digital Education (IACDE) empowers you to demonstrate excellence, integrity, and impact.
IACDE offers two distinct pathways to recognition—each designed to meet your institution’s unique mission and goals while strengthening the quality and reputation of your digital learning initiatives.
1. Institutional Accreditation: Elevate Your Entire Institution
Institutional Accreditation is designed for universities, academies, and training providers offering multiple programs or a broad digital learning ecosystem. This pathway validates your entire operation—from governance and leadership to academic quality, learner outcomes, and digital innovation.
By achieving Institutional Accreditation, your organization demonstrates that it operates with integrity, transparency, and a strong commitment to excellence in online and hybrid learning. It’s more than a credential—it’s a global endorsement that assures students, partners, and employers that your institution delivers trusted, future-ready education.
Who should apply?
- Fully online or hybrid universities and academies
- Multi-program digital learning institutions
- Organizations seeking comprehensive quality assurance
2. Programmatic Accreditation: Highlight Your Best Offerings
Programmatic Accreditation is perfect for departments, programs, or learning tracks that want to showcase specialized excellence. Through IACDE’s Programmatic Accreditation Labels, you can spotlight your standout offerings—such as a professional certificate, degree program, or training module—and demonstrate that they meet the highest global standards.
This option is ideal for organizations that want to begin their accreditation journey gradually or highlight flagship programs before pursuing full institutional recognition.
Who should apply?
- Universities or academies with specific standout programs
- Specialized training centers or certification providers
- Industry-led education initiatives seeking independent validation
Why Choose IACDE?
Accreditation with IACDE is more than compliance—it’s collaboration, innovation, and growth. Through a transparent, fully digital review process, your institution gains access to expert feedback, peer recognition, and opportunities for continuous improvement.
By taking this step, you join a global community of education leaders committed to quality, ethics, and the future of digital learning.
