The Accreditation Process
ASIC Benefits & Support
Holding ASIC Accreditation boosts reputational standing, demonstrating that your institution meets high standards of educational best practice and student welfare support. It reassures students (and their caregivers and sponsors) that studying at your institution is a safe choice, where they will receive professional teaching, valuable qualifications, and a positive learning experience.
Investing in your international reputation
We believe quality assurance should lead to demonstrable impact. ASIC has a proven track record with glowing recommendations from our institutions about the tangible results our work produces.
Obtaining the award of ASIC Accreditation will enhance the reputation of your institution. It demonstrates that you have chosen to be audited voluntarily by an external and unbiased international quality body. Once accredited, displaying the ASIC Badge of Accreditation across your marketing materials will allow you to showcase your investment in providing quality education.
Students, and their parents/caregivers, can be confident that your institution offers a safe and welcoming experience with a high standard of teaching and appropriate resources. It will also demonstrate to stakeholders and partners the credibility of your institution's commitment to continuous improvement.
I found ASIC and its inspectors to be professional, supportive, and helpful throughout.
