Founded in 1912, ACICS is a national accrediting organization of primarily degree granting institutions. We accredit institutions that offer programs in professional, technical, and occupational fields. ACICS is recognized by the U.S Department of Education (ED) and the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA). ACICS'​ scope of accreditation is recognized through the Master's Degree level.

The mission of the Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools is to advance educational excellence at independent, nonpublic career schools, colleges, and organizations in the United States and abroad. This is achieved through a deliberate and thorough accreditation process of quality assurance and enhancement as well as ethical business and educational practice.
