ACCREDITATION / CERTIFICATION INFORMATION DISCLOSURE
Applying for institutional or programmatic accreditation through an established and recognized accrediting agency is a voluntary process. Obtaining accreditation demonstrates that an institution is in compliance with recognized standards of education. AIMS Education is institutionally accredited by the Accrediting Bureau of Health Education Schools and the Commission on Secondary Schools of the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools. Accreditation for programs is not mandatory, but in some cases programmatic accreditation will permit graduates to take credentialing exams upon graduation.
Registration or certification requirements for national exams are stipulated by the respective agencies and are subject to change without notice to AIMS Education. Therefore AIMS Education cannot promise eligibility for graduates to take certification exams.
