Find an Accredited or Applicant Program
Accreditation of an educational program provides students and graduates assurance that the educational program will provide them with the requisite knowledge, skills, and values to competently perform the range of professional responsibilities expected by potential employers nationwide. It also assures they will be eligible for licensure in each of the 50 states.
FIND A PROGRAMAllegations
The JRCERT is required to be responsive to allegations of non-compliance with any of its Standards. An investigation into allegations of non-compliance addresses only the program’s compliance with accreditation standards and will not affect the status of any individual student. The JRCERT takes seriously and follows up appropriately any allegation that an accredited program is not maintaining compliance with its accreditation standards. Please be advised the JRCERT cannot advocate on behalf of any one student.
