About Accreditation
Understanding Accreditation and Certification
Accreditation helps establish confidence in the competence and impartiality of organisations that perform assessment and certification activities.
The Institute of Professional and Technical Studies (IPTS) provides educational guidance and information to learners exploring academic and professional development opportunities. Accreditation and certification requirements can differ according to the organisation, programme, qualification and country concerned.
Students are encouraged to check the exact awarding body, programme approval, recognition status and applicable conditions before enrolling in any course.
Important: The organisations listed below are
accreditation-related bodies mentioned in IPTS's earlier
website content. Their appearance on this page does not, by
itself, confirm that IPTS or any particular IPTS programme is
accredited, approved, licensed or recognised by them.
Please verify current status and documentary evidence directly
with the relevant organisation.

Accreditation Bodies and Organisations
Explore the roles of the organisations referenced in the previous IPTS Accreditations page.
International Accreditation Forum (IAF)
IAF is an international association focused on conformity assessment accreditation and multilateral recognition arrangements intended to support confidence in accredited certification.
QASL
The previous IPTS page refers to QASL in connection with auditor certification, training and management system certification-related activities. Always verify the precise organisation and its current credentials.
Dubai Accreditation Centre (DAC)
DAC is an accreditation body associated with the assessment of conformity assessment organisations. Any claim concerning an institution or academic programme should be checked with the relevant official authority.
United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS)
UKAS is the UK's national accreditation body. It assesses organisations providing services such as testing, inspection, calibration and certification against applicable requirements.
American Board of Accreditation Services (ABAS)
ABAS is referenced in the earlier IPTS page in relation to conformity assessment and certification. Verify the issuing organisation, scope and status of any claimed certificate before relying on it.
Please note: Accreditation of a certification
body is not automatically the same as academic recognition of
a college, institute, university or degree programme. The
applicable authority and scope must be checked separately.
Student Guidance
How to Verify an Accreditation or Qualification
Use these checks before making an admission or payment decision.
1
Identify the awarding organisation
Confirm which university, institution or awarding body will issue the final certificate or degree.
2
Check the programme and its scope
Verify that the exact programme, qualification level, mode of study and relevant location fall within the stated approval or recognition.
3
Check official records
Consult the relevant government regulator, accreditation body's official directory or awarding organisation's verification service.
4
Request documentary evidence
Ask for the applicable certificate or approval reference, its validity period, scope and verification details where relevant.
