Accreditation and Recognition

Accreditation is an important feature for a school because it ensures that the certificates and credentials offered by the institution are recognized and accepted by colleges, universities, and employers.

But in the UK accreditation is not as common as in the USA. In fact, most of the online schools in the UK do not have any accreditation as such. The school states that it works closely to meet the standards laid by the Online Education Accreditation Scheme, established for online schools by the Department of Education.
