INTERNATIONAL ACCREDITATION

The Independent Institute of Education is internationally accredited by The British Accreditation Council (BAC). This significant achievement demonstrates to our students and staff that our standards are indeed world-class and ensures that students can be confident about the value of their qualifications.

About BAC

The IIE is not only accredited in South Africa, but its dedication to providing quality education also led to it being accredited by the British Accreditation Council (BAC) in 2014. The British Accreditation Council is an independent authority in the United Kingdom that accredits private providers globally, including Greece, Switzerland, Singapore, India, Mauritius and the United Arab Emirates. In 2017 The IIE had its accreditation status confirmed by the BAC as an International Higher Education Institution confirming our confidence in the international comparability of our standards.

What does it mean for an institution to have BAC accreditation?

An educational institution that has achieved BAC accreditation has been judged against a set of internationally recognised quality standards - this means qualified experts evaluate the institution against the following criteria:

  • Teaching, learning and assessment
  • Governance, strategy and financial management
  • Student support, guidance, recruitment and progression
  • Premises, facilities, and learning resources
  • Quality management, assurance and enhancement
