Heritage University - a new phony

The contents, all six pages, are pure Kristiaan De Ley, but Heritage University has a different, and new to me, accreditor, the World Federation of Colleges and Universities. Heritage seems to be a knock-off rather than a new member of De Ley's mill stable.

 

Hmm. Google finds "World Federation of Colleges and Universities" in only one other context:

In the original French:

http://www.roliste.com/static/jeufbbc.html

 

http://www.heritageuniversity.com/degree.html

The pix of the mortarboard on this page says it all.

 

Yup, compare these sentences:

"The Commonwealth of Dominica where Capitol University is registered as a legitimate graduate school authorized by law to confer academic degrees, is hardly poisoned by the existence of illegal diploma factories that are common practice in the United States and Australia."
http://www.capitol-edu.org/pages/100780/
"The British Commonwealth, to which our jurisdiction belongs, is hardly poisoned by the existence of illegal diploma factories that are common practice in the United States and certain Asian countries."
http://www.heritageuniversity.com/accreditation.html

Kristiaan de Ley is behind Capitol University, and Concordia College & University. What else is in his stable?

 

His very phony accrediting agency, the Distance Graduation Accrediting Association. DGAA is currently taking a back-seat while Kris tries out the Liberian experience.

De Ley's earliest efforts were in translating UK Trinty C&U materials into Dutch and creating sites for them on free hosts. Following the rift between the two Trinity mills, he seemed to switch affiliation to the U.S. version, and may have worked with them on several projects that apparently never came to fruition.
