What is an accreditation?

Accreditation is a quality assurance process that colleges, universities and educational institutions or programs undergo to confirm that they meet a strict and recognized set of service and operational standards. It is assessed by private, nongovernmental accrediting agencies that have been created specifically to review education institutions and programs. When an institution is properly accredited, you are able to gauge its overall quality without having to conduct a detailed analysis on your own.

What they say

Phyu Tha Zin

Entering the world of Montessori has been an eye-opening experience as I have only been exposed to a standard education system such as the kindergarten. It has been very useful in our household as well as I learn to allow my child to be more independent and less forceful. I am very grateful for the education. I have received and I hope to advance my skills in the future.

I am now more motivated to do my work well and succeed. It is so fulfilling when you can guide children in their yearning to learn, thrive, explore and towards becoming independent. I am an IEYC teacher and a Montessori learning assistant in the same school. I am presently working in Saigon Star International school.

This course adds up to my knowledge about Montessori. It helped me in making proper lesson plans. The coordinator responds within 24-48 hours. The assignment was a lot but I find it challenging and useful for my future plans. Thank you so much! I am working as a teacher in Saigon International School, Vietnam.

DISCLAIMER

Asian College of Teachers (ACT) undertakes a continuous review of its teacher training courses to ensure imparting high quality education. However, there might be circumstances outside of ACT’s control which might affect its stakeholders like if you are planning to teach in a different country, applying for a teaching license, pursuing higher studies or trying to get the certificate approved by the Ministry of Education (MoE) of a particular country then you can do so with the certificate issued by Asian College of Teachers (ACT). However, each country’s Ministry of Education (MoE) or educational bodies set certain standards that are indispensable for the pursuit of higher studies or teaching in schools in that country. So it can be a possibility that you may be able to use the certificate for higher studies or teaching purposes in one country and not in another. Therefore, we strongly recommend that you investigate thoroughly and check with the relevant authorities regarding the acceptance of the certificate issued by us before you enrol on a particular course. ACT strives to offer high-quality education and its certificates can be valuable for various purposes internationally, but still it is crucial for individuals to verify the specific recognition of the certificate in the country they intend to use it, especially for formal education or professional licensing purposes. This approach ensures that the stakeholders make informed decisions regarding their educational and career paths.
