Global Accreditation
"We have a strong track record in producing top-level, business-savvy project managers who can hit the ground running. This prestigious accreditation is recognition of the great work we've been doing in developing superior project managers. We are delighted to join the family of GAC-accredited programs, and remain committed to the education of project managers and this programme, which we intend to expand internationally."

Programmatic accreditation through the Project Management Global Accreditation Center for Project Management Education Programs (GAC) confirms to the world that an institution's project management degree program has been carefully assessed and that its scale, scope and quality conform to a comprehensive international standard. Just as importantly, it also makes a public statement about the deep commitment of the institution and its faculty to ongoing evaluation and continuous quality improvement.
The need for project managers is only going to increase and more and more institutions are going to begin offering their own programs. Faced with navigating a confusing array of competing programs and incompatible curricula, students and prospective employers will begin to search for a universal, internationally accepted standard for quality education in project management.
The
GAC provides an international standard for quality within a project management program, a universal, well-defined structure against which all programs can be measured.
More than 60 degree programs at close to 30 academic institutions around the world have achieved GAC accreditation. Degree programs at many other schools are on their way to achieving accreditation.
