regional accreditation

Regional accreditation is a quality assurance process used by educational institutions in the United States to ensure they meet certain standards of excellence. It is granted by regional accrediting bodies, which evaluate schools and programs based on criteria like teaching effectiveness, curriculum quality, and student support. Schools with regional accreditation are generally recognized by employers and other institutions, making it important for students who wish to transfer credits or pursue further education. Accreditation helps ensure that students receive a valuable, credible education.
