The Importance of Accreditation

Accreditation is important because it provides a standard in assuring current and prospective students of the following:

• A school is recognized as an institution of higher learning with programs accepted by industry standards
• A professional staff is employed
• Facilities and equipment are sufficient to meet student training needs

Accredited medical assistant training schools voluntarily submit to accrediting evaluations by a team of qualified examiners, and include specialists and experts in the field of occupational education and private administration.
