ACTDE – Setting standards for quality Education!
 

ACTDE (Accreditation Council for Distance Education) is an internationally recognized, independent and private education accrediting body. It operates worldwide, granting educational accreditation only to the higher educational institutions. These institutions are primarily involved in education for working adults, both traditional and online, as well as professional and vocational institutes and secondary schools.

Accreditation is conferred by rigorously evaluating all applicant institutions, their individual schools and programs through the unique patented evaluation process of ACTDE. The evaluation process is based on the best global practices in working-adult education.

This thorough examination of an applicant’s management, quality of education, processes and methods ensure all accredited institutions meet ACTDE’s global quality standards. For the benefit of working adults pursuing higher education the ACTDE further builds relationships with all accredited institutions to disseminate information on the current standards in global working-adult education.
