Accreditation

Educational Accreditation is a type of quality assurance process under which services and operations of an educational institution or program are evaluated by an external body to determine if applicable standards are met. Should standards be met, accredited status is granted by the 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, the quality assurance process is independent of government and performed by private membership associations.

The University of San Diego, School of Leadership and Education Sciences, Counseling Program is accredited by:

  • Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP)
  • National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE)
  • California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CCTC)
