DETC Accreditation

Thursday June 5, 2008
For over 50 years, the Distance Education Training Council (DETC) has been reviewing and accrediting distance learning schools. Although it is recognized by the United States Department of Education, the DETC has faced notable resistance from regionally accredited schools that refuse to accept transcripts from high schools and colleges accredited by the DETC.

Distance Education Training Council's CEO Michael P. Lambert shares his knowledge about the accrediting association, its achievements, and its struggle with regionally accredited institutions.
