President’s Message

Welcome to The European Accreditation Agency
for Higher Education

Thank you for visiting our website. As an educational and accreditation agency, we want to give you the opportunity to stay in touch with us and our educational information.

We at EAAHE are very proud of our long and prestigious, rich history. The fact that our help to governments for setting the locally standards in higher education for many years through our research, publications, conferences, seminars and partnerships makes us the leader in this effort. We look forward to the next many years to the improvement of higher education which has come a long way, but has a long way to go.

Our organization was established to set the standards in all over the world in the field of education in more than 50 different disciplines and we have been responsible for providing outstanding educational information. Our specialty is in the area of accreditation, education information and membership to anyone looking to help promote quality higher education. Our regular members particularly value our continued dedication in the field of higher education.

EAAHE ´s primary function is to assure and strengthen academic or vocational quality and ongoing quality improvement in academic or vocational courses, programs and degrees.

EAAHE carries forward a long tradition of ensuring quality, accountability, and improvement in higher education. Recognition by EAAHE affirms that standards and processes of accreditation are consistent with quality, improvement, and accountability expectations that EAAHE has established. EAAHE will recognize regional, specialized, national, international and professional educational institutions. EAAHE supports contemporary scholarships and leading the way in digital revisioning of higher education.

EAAHE supports certain core academic values such as Institutional Autonomy, the valuing of the intellectual and academic authority of the faculty, education programs, site-based education and a community of learning, and collegiality and shared governance, sustain accreditation. Colleges, universities and distance learning centers conduct their day-to-day business, develop strategic plans, generate operating budgets, and engage with students based on the perceived importance of these values. While the accreditation process allows considerable flexibility in how these values are honored, the higher education community itself insists that the values be addressed.

Accordingly, international accreditation protects these values. Over the years, standards and criteria have evolved that require the investment of institutional resources in them. Accreditation standards also routinely require the maintenance of adequate campus facilities to sustain a community of learning, and call for a clear commitment to general education, consistent with institutional mission.

At EAAHE we are strongly committed to the principle that Post Secondary Education should have access to accreditation and recognition processes for accrediting organizations. On behalf of the entire Board of Directors and Staff of EAAHE, I welcome you to our internet home.
