CEQA Accreditation Aid
Accreditation Aid is a dedicated CEQA support pathway designed for institutions, course creators, programme writers, academies, online schools, and skills providers who are not yet ready for full accreditation — but want to get there.
What Accreditation Aid Does
- Develops missing policies & procedures
- Builds governance & quality systems
- Aligns programmes with CEQA criteria
- Prepares assessment & moderation frameworks
- Supports compliant online learning environments
- Gets you ready for Tier 2–5 accreditation
Who It Supports
- Newly established institutions
- Online schools & e-learning platforms
- Programme writers & curriculum developers
- Private training providers & skills centres
- Colleges building structured QA systems
- Organisations with strong content but weak systems
Many organisations offer real learning value but lack the structures, documents, systems, or evidence required for a successful accreditation review. Accreditation Aid bridges that gap.
What Is CEQA Accreditation Aid?
Accreditation Aid is a guided support service that helps institutions and course creators design, document, and implement the quality systems needed to meet CEQA accreditation requirements.
We work step-by-step with your team to ensure you have the governance, evidence, and structures required for a successful accreditation review.
Once your institution meets CEQA’s criteria through Accreditation Aid, you may proceed to:
- Tier 2 – Institutional Accreditation
- Tier 3 – Programme Accreditation
- Tier 4 – Short Course & CPD Accreditation
- Tier 5 – Micro-Learning Accreditation
Accreditation Aid Helps You:
- Develop or strengthen policies & procedures
- Clarify governance and accountability structures
- Align programmes with CEQA standards
- Set up assessment & moderation frameworks
- Implement learner support & protection systems
- Establish compliant online learning environments
If you have great content but no quality framework, we help build it.
Who Is Accreditation Aid For?
Accreditation Aid is ideal for institutions and educators who are serious about quality, but still developing their systems, policies, and evidence.
Accreditation Aid Fees
Accreditation Aid is structured in three stages: application, development, and progression to standard CEQA accreditation.
1. Application Fee
199 USD (Non-Refundable)
This fee covers:
- Initial review of your current systems
- Gap analysis against CEQA accreditation criteria
- Recommendations for required structures & documents
- Allocation of a CEQA advisor
- High-level development pathway plan
This fee is separate from CEQA’s standard accreditation routes.
2. System Development Fee
150 – 1500 USD
Cost depends on:
- Number and complexity of programmes
- Size and structure of your institution
- Missing systems, evidence, and documentation
- Whether online platforms / LMS are in place
- Number of policies and frameworks to be built
Typical cost for online providers and course creators: 150 – 350 USD.
Includes development, templating, system setup, and advisory support.
3. CEQA Accreditation Fees
Standard Tier 2–5 fees apply once you are ready.
After your systems meet CEQA’s minimum criteria through Accreditation Aid, you may proceed to formal accreditation. Annual accreditation fees will then apply according to your category and tier.
