medical school accreditation

Medical school accreditation is a formal recognition that a medical school meets established educational standards necessary for training future doctors. This process is conducted by specialized accrediting organizations that evaluate the school's curriculum, faculty, facilities, and student outcomes. Accreditation ensures that the education provided is of high quality and prepares students for medical practice. Without accreditation, graduates may face challenges in obtaining medical licenses or entering residency programs, ultimately impacting their ability to work as physicians. It serves as a crucial quality assurance mechanism in medical education.
