UK Accreditation
Grow your student recruitment with our UK Government approved accreditation service
UK Accreditation Overview
We welcome applications from all types of UK education providers wishing to increase their international student recruitment using the UKVI standard visitor visa and the short-term study visa routes. The assessment leading to the award of accreditation covers the whole range of facilities, activities and resources of your operation, placing the central focus on the student experience and the expertise of the staff responsible for delivering this.
Our inspectors have a wealth of experience working in the UK higher education and further education sectors. This expertise, along with our unique insight into the international education market, is embedded within our Standards. The objective of the accreditation process is to recognise and underpin your institution’s commitment to providing a high-quality learning experience in a safe and supportive environment.
