Education from an accredited college is important for you. Accreditation is an assurance to students and the public that an institution meets or exceeds standards for quality of faculty, curriculum, learner services, and fiscal stability. Accreditation is important because credits earned will transfer to other accredited colleges. Employers and professional organizations recognize accreditation and place value on credits, certificates, and degrees earned from accredited institutions.
