Accreditation is Effective Substitute for Regulation - AMC Study
A new report released the non-profit American Council on Education (AMC) has endorsed accreditation is an effective substitute for institutional regulation.
Many countries are moving away from governmental policy led supervision to a system that inspires and builds confidence for self-regulation by the institutions, a cause which SEAA had supported from its inception in India.
The report, Assuring Academic Quality in the 21st Century: Self-Regulation in a New Era, considers the central characteristics of accreditation and outlines common criticisms of the process. It then offers six major recommendations for steps colleges, universities and regional accreditors can and should take to ensure accreditation meets its public accountability responsibilities given the enormous diversity of American higher education.
