The harsh and the large competition that you have now, regardless of the business industry and the sector has eaten up hundreds of thousands who tried starting their journeys. Did you know that an astounding 20% of all small businesses pummel in their first year? Do you know what’s worse? – Their second year – more than 30% fail.
It’s not about having the best product or providing the best services all the time. As a matter of fact, it can be with how your organization or your company is known in the field. This is where the importance of accreditation comes in.
Accreditation For Businesses and Organizations
The International Organization for Standardization or the ISO is the world-renowned agency that recreates and publishes several international standards for institutions, facilities, and businesses. They’re the organization that you need to watch out for if you’re trying to gain the trust and the loyalty of the market. For businesses and organizations, gaining accreditation or certification is their key to ensure that the market would be on their side. It’s like showcasing their expertise and their compliance to what’s right, with the basis, of course, on international standards.
Individual Accreditation and Certification
The same thing goes for the employees and the professionals of our generation. They would find it hard and challenging to land on the opportunities that are right for them if they don’t have the means of displaying what they’re capable of.
AccredMark is the nationally-known and most prominent accrediting body that seeks to help out students who are trying to build a professional portfolio for themselves. Our services reach the far ends of accreditation alone – we’re also skilled and adept in performing certification tracking, personnel certification research, and many more.
The Importance of Accreditation
Schools, colleges, universities, and other moderate learning institutions undergo accreditation in order for them to determine whether or not they meet a particular set of standards or requirements.
In the event that they decide to pursue accreditation, they would be assessed by a nongovernmental accrediting body – and that’s us here at AccredMark. But why is it such an important process for colleges and other learning institutions?
How relevant and essential would it be for their future?
Creates Quality Standards
Among the many reasons why universities and colleges push through the direction of accreditation is because of the fact that it’s responsible for the creation of quality standards that are in line with education.
Its main goal is to standardize requirements so they everything is met and students would find it easier for them to be in the direction that they want to be in a professional sense.
Here at AccredMark, we can accredit schools, colleges, and curricula to see if they maintain the standards that need to be met in the industry or the particular discipline that they have. For instance, the educational healthcare sector has a specific set of standards and requirements that should be maintained 100% of the time.
Failure to do so can lead to a lot of errors and problems with how students are educated, trained, and deployed into the real world.
How We Accredit Schools
Different accrediting agencies and institutions have their own ways of accrediting schools and organizations. We here at AccredMark, however, do it independently. If we speak and discuss it generally, it’s similar to the structure and to the overall framework of how accreditation should be done.
In detail, though, it’s different and it’s a lot more efficient, effective, and productive than how it’s done by other accreditation bodies and organizations.
Looking For Different Attributes and Characteristics
Upon the request for accreditation, our team of assessors, auditors, and accrediting experts would try and locate certain attributes within your specialization. This is one of the most important and the most essential things to consider because different specializations and fields have different levels of proficiency and accreditation.
Intense and Extensive Data Collection and Gathering
Once we locate the relevant and the necessary attributes that relate to the specialization of the college or the learning institution, we would gather information and data that would draw up the competency and the compliance of the institution to certain standards.
Review and Assessment of the Data Gathered
Finally, our team would review and evaluate the data and the information we have collected and gathered. We would also conduct a final site visit to see and check whether the institution is ready to receive a certain level of accreditation.
Our process might seem normal and easy, but if you look at it thoroughly, you will see that it’s not how most accrediting agencies and organizations do it.
Our Follow-Ups on Accreditation
If you think that our job is done after we have certified your institution, then you’re mistaken. In fact, we keep a tab on all our clients because their accreditation would need to be renewed at least once every five (5) to ten (10) years.
This process is to make sure that the institution is maintaining the accreditation in the best and the most correct way possible.
What Other Services We Offer
Apart from accreditation, what other services can you entrust to us here at AccredMark? We may be the best, the most accomplished, and the most prominent accrediting body in the industry, but do our services end there?
Through years of constant innovation and investments, we were able to arrive at a point where we sought for other complimentary services that would aid and add up to the value of the accreditation services that we offer. With that, we studied and laid out plans on what other services we can do – and because of that we came up with the following:
- Digital Badging or Digital Badge Provisions
- Certification Tracking and Tracing
- Personnel Certification Research or Student Certification Research
- ISO/IEC 17024 Certification or Consultation
Digital Badging or Digital Badge Provisions
One particular service that we excelled in as a complement to the accreditation services and activities that we do here at AccredMark is digital badging. In case you’re not fully aware of what a digital badge is, it is a virtual or a digital form of certification that would display the abilities and the competencies of a certain student or individual.
And if you think that digital badges don’t have physical counterparts, think again. Certificates and documents like a driver’s license, a diploma, certification of completion, and the like, can all have digital badge counterparts.
How Students Can Get Digital Badges
After AccredMark successfully accredits a particular curriculum, students who would be successful in passing that can get a digital badge for it. For instance, in the healthcare industry, they can get a digital badge for the achievements they were able to make while taking up the curriculum.
Then, we would be providing the digital badge as well as the procedures and the processes on how they can download and upload it; how they can use it to display on their social media profiles and pages; or how they can include it in their resume (digital resume).
Once done, all organizations will have the opportunity to check its legitimacy by clicking it – and when they do, it will be redirected to us – a sign that it’s legitimate and that it’s something that a reputable accreditation body or organization has provided.
Certification Tracking and Tracing
Apart from digital badging, AccredMark is also an organization skilled and adept in certification tracking and tracing. This particular service is quite self-explanatory – it is the procedure in which a company or an organization would validate and authenticate a particular certification of an individual or a learning institution.
The purpose of certification tracking is to give the assurance that the certification provided is legitimate and is not falsified one way or another.
Through the keen eyes of our experts and the cutting-edge technology and software we have invested in, you can bank and count on us here at AccredMark to help and aid you with the certification track that you need.
Why Certification Tracking is Important
Some of the most common and the most recognizable reasons why certification tracking is important are with the fact that it can be the sole basis of a company or an organization to select candidates for a post they’ve opened; an available posting; and the like. Apart from that, here are a couple of reasons why Certification Tracking is a Relevant Process:
- Maintenance of Consistent and Structured Standards
- Improvement and Development of Honesty and Transparency
- Protection of Your Institution or Your Organization
- And Many More
Tracking the Certification of a Student, Employee, or a Worker is an essential thing to do – and that’s something that we here at AccredMark can help you with.
Personnel Certification Research or Student Certification Research
Students who would take up a program or a curriculum would expect that they would receive a certificate for it – and if they graduate, they will be receiving a diploma, signifying their completion and their efforts in completing the particular degree.
Through the Personnel or the Student Certification Program that we offer, we would be able to help and assist students who look for a certification so that they can display and showcase some exquisite skills that they’ve developed over time.
AccredMark can guarantee the effectiveness and the efficiency of the Certification that students can get out of the accredited curricula and programs we have developed. Gauging the success and the overall proficiency of a student is a vague idea – but providing certifications for it is one of the most effective ways of distinguishing the competencies of a student.
Certifications for Students and Why It’s Important
Why is a certification a relevant part or ingredient of a student’s life? Why do you think many students yearn to receive some type of certification? It can be for a wide variety of things – and more often than not, it’s for the future of the students. To detail some of the most important reasons why certification is a relevant part of a student’s life, here are a few of those reasons:
Creation of a Learning Path
Imagine a student in the Information Technology industry but in the middle of their journey, they decided that they want to pursue security instead. If a student has certification for excelling in the security standard, they can use that certification to show companies and organizations their skill in security. Certifications can create a versatile learning path for students, allowing them to curve and to take different paths on the crossroads they would be entering.
The Option to Choose
The competitive market is not something that early and young professionals love. As a matter of fact, it’s one of the few reasons why engineering graduates don’t end up working as an engineer. But by gaining or being qualified for a particular Certification, your chances of taking up anything in relation to engineering is heightened. There would be less skepticism and ideas of risk and failure, especially for well-grounded businesses and organizations.
Increased Proficiency and Reliability
Certification for a particular skill or competency is one way to demonstrate the expertise of a student in that particular area. For instance, if the student gains certification for the speed and the time when they operated on a particular animal, it can be a great addition to the skills of the student.
Student Certifications promote the evidence of a student’s proficiency in the area of their expertise. Those are only some of the few and the most important factors on why Certification is an important part of education – there are a lot more. The wide range of certifications that students can get is one good reason why colleges and universities should be providing them more frequently.
ISO/IEC 17024 Certification or Consultation
The standard that is specifically made for accreditation bodies and organizations, the ISO/IEC 17024 is something that would strengthen the claim and the capability of an accreditation agency or company in the industry. Developed by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC), along with some representatives of the ISO, the standard is ought to dictate and to list down the requirements and the obligatory actions that accreditation organizations need to pursue in order for them to be qualified and to be certified against the international standard.
