Who is the Distance Education
and Training Council?
The DETC Accrediting Commission was
established in 1955. The Commission's mission is to promote,
by means of standard-setting, evaluation, and consultation
processes, the development and maintenance of high educational
and ethical standards in education and training programs delivered
through distance learning. The DETC Accrediting Commission
identifies and accredits distance education and training institutions
that have attained and maintained the standards deemed necessary
to operate at a high level of quality.

What is Accreditation and
Why is it important?
The process of accreditation is voluntary.
Institutions seeking accreditation open their doors to be
thoroughly evaluated by their peers.
Accreditation is both a status and
a process. As a status, accreditation provides public notification
that an institution or program meets standards of quality
set forth by an accrediting agency.
As a process, accreditation reflects
the fact that in achieving recognition by the accrediting
agency, the institution or program is committed to self-study
and external review by one's peers in seeking, not only to
meet standards, but to continuously seek ways in which to
enhance the quality of education and training provided.
Today, more than 4 million Americans
are enrolled in DETC-accredited institutions. It is estimated
that since 1890, some 130 million Americans have taken distance
education courses. Presently, there are 100 institutions accredited
by the Accrediting Commission.
