About ACPSC

 

Organized in 1987, the Accrediting Council for Private Schools and Colleges (ACPSC) aims to develop a mechanism of, and conduct the evaluation of programs and institutions in order to ensure that these institutions provide appropriately delivered courses which are of high quality to their students and communities.

 

We eagerly invite you to leaf through the pages of this Web site to learn more about our activities and new developments in the implementation of our programs. You can also access the fundamental documents such as the Accreditation Manual and Handbook for Accreditors which we have so far developed in consultation with our stakeholders and experts in the field of accreditation.
