accreditation and compliance

Accreditation is a formal process in which an independent organization evaluates an institution or program to ensure it meets specific standards of quality and performance. Compliance means adhering to these standards and regulations set by authorities or accrediting bodies. Together, accreditation and compliance help ensure that organizations, like schools, hospitals, or businesses, operate effectively, maintain safety, and provide reliable services. This process fosters trust and accountability, demonstrating that an entity meets established benchmarks for excellence and responsibility.
