The Engineering Council (EC) is the UK regulatory body for the engineering profession. Its Engineering Accreditation Board (AB) is made up of all the professional engineering institutions that are licensed by the Engineering Council to accredit academic programs for both Chartered Engineer and Incorporated Engineer status. The aim of EAB is to encourage consistent accreditation processes and practices as well as to provide a single point of contact to facilitate joint accreditation visits, where appropriate, for member PEIs.

The Accreditation Organisation of the Netherlands and Flanders, or Nederlands-Vlaamse Accreditatieorganisatie (NVAO), is a quality assurance agency that safeguards the quality of higher education in the Netherlands and Flanders, in an expert and independent manner, and that fosters the quality culture pursued within the higher education institutions in the Netherlands and Flanders. It accredits existing and new programmes, and assesses the quality assurance of higher education institutions. NVAO bases its assessments on the recommendations of recognised experts.
