The Department of Education, Innovation and Gender Relations would like to inform individuals who intend to pursue studies at any international, regional or local institution, that before enrolling in an institution, the individual should seek advice on the status of accredition of the institution of choice.
Accreditation is important because it: helps determine if an institution meets or exceeds minimum standards of quality; helps students determine acceptable institutions for enrollment; and
assists institutions in determining acceptability of transfer credits.
For queries pertaining to the accreditation of institutions, persons are asked to contact the Human Resource Development Unit of the Department of Education, Innovation and Gender Relations at telephone numbers 468-5229 or 468-5291 or at email address hrd@education.gov.lc or hrdeducation.slu@gmail.com.
