 Accreditation

Accreditation is a process, based on professional judgment, for evaluating whether or not

an educational Institution or program meets specified standards of educational quality.

The primary purpose of accreditation is to ensure that graduates of an institution,

conducting various programs, have achieved a minimum level of competence in their
chosen fields of study.
NAAC Accreditation

In India, accreditation of the Universities is done by National Assessment and

Accreditation Council (NAAC)-an autonomous institution established by the
University Grants Commission (UGC) .

Assessment is the performance evaluation of an institution or its units based

on certain established criteria.

Accreditation is the certification of quality for a fixed period, which in the case of
NAAC is 5 years.
