Hello All, I am looking into contacting a group partnering with the following institution and would like to know if these schools are regionally accredited (RA) or accredited by their respective Ministries of Education. I cannot find accreditation information on the 'ABOUT US' pages of their websites: Hawaii Pacific University Arne Naess Center for Ecology and Philosophy - ANCEP UNITEC – Institute of Technology Foothill und De Anza Colleges La Trobe University Griffith University University of the Sunshine Coast Many thanks and happy holidays!! Russell
I will answer what I know exactly.. US RA Hawaii Pacific University Aussie accredited La Trobe University Griffith University University of the Sunshine Coast Kiwi accredited UNITEC As to others,I am honestly unfamiliar
My what an eclectic mix! Foothill and De Anza colleges are two year community colleges in the San Francisco Bay Area. They are accredited by WASC as a junior college. Hopefully others can answer about the rest.
http://www.aqf.edu.au/register.htm The AQF Register was established by the AQF Advisory Board at the request of the Australian education ministers represented on the Ministerial Council on Education, Employment, Training and Youth Affairs (MCEETYA) to facilitate the verification of AQF qualifications. This present AQF Register replaces the two original AQF Registers (1995- October 2002). University of the Sunshine Coast, Griffith University, and La Trobe University are ALL listed on the above website. http://www.wascweb.org/senior/2003-2004%20(Web)%20Senior%20Directory.pdf This link is for the WASC (a regional US accreditor) directory. On page 33 you will find Hawaii Pacific University. http://www.ieconline.net/webGermany/WebPages/All_Universities/04_AncepU.htm As you will see, Arne Naess Center for Ecology and Philosophy - ANCEP is in cooperation with Murdoch University which is a recognized Austrailian University. (I'm assuming that you heard about these schools from IEC Online because on the German page all of those schools are listed.) http://www.unitec.ac.nz/?71B01FBA-3A09-4012-91F8-FD4D80C72E6F This link takes you to the educational charter page for UNITEC – Institute of Technology. http://www.accjc.org/ Again, we are back to the WASC. The ACCJC is their commission for accreditation of community/junior colleges. On the left hand side of the screen, click on "directory of colleges accredited by ACCJC" and once the page loads, click on "F", scroll down a little ways and you'll see FOOTHILL DE ANZA COMMUNITY COLLEGE DISTRICT. To summarize: ALL of your prospective schools are recognized.
Oops! Many thanks to all for the quick and thorough responses! Thanks italiansupernova for the links and info.
