Realizing Futures of Engineering Accreditation

Engineers Canada launched the Futures of Engineering Accreditation (FEA) project in 2021 -- a multi-year initiative to assess and modernize the Canadian engineering accreditation system. At the heart of the FEA project was a strategic priority outlined in Engineers Canada’s 2022–2024 Strategic Plan: to examine how the current accreditation system serves today’s needs and how it must evolve to support the future of engineering in Canada.

The New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) is pleased to present the portal Accreditation.org. It is a comprehensive resource focused on the accreditation of academic programs worldwide in engineering, engineering technology, and computing. Nearly all professionals in these fields begin their careers through rigorous academic training.

Accrediting Bodies

Accreditation of programs in engineering, engineering technology and computing is conducted by many organizations, ranging from governmental or quasi governmental bodies to private and volunteer associations. In some regions, accreditation is regulated by laws, while in others it is a voluntary process with little official recognition.
