Accreditation

An accrediting organization is a watchman on the wall. Webster defines accreditation as: to give trust or confidence to; to vouch for; to recommend; to furnish with credentials, as an envoy or ambassador. Every accreditation group is not the same. They are different and focused in different areas of accreditation.

ACI Benefits

You have made the first step by looking through our Web Site. Let me congratulate you for being interested in enhancing the quality of your educational program and that of the learning institution you represent, if any. We hope that you will soon reap the benefits and the rewards of being a member of ACI.

Teacher Certification

ACI also provides individual membership for teachers with certification by ACI. This is not a requirement for the school to become a member, but we do recommend that a school certify its teachers. This certification is not to be confused with State Teacher Certification. This is a vehicle to let our members know that a teacher is qualified in a certain field to teach subjects for our membership.
