Academic and Non-Academic Accreditations
Academic Specialized Accreditations
Specialized program accreditation processes set standards for professional or other specialized programs (e.g., nursing, business, medicine, law) and evaluate the ability of the individual program to meet these standards. Though these standards may be very similar to those set by the Higher Learning Commission, the standards apply only to the specific program and not the institution as a whole.
Non-Academic Specialized Accreditations
A number of non-academic programs (e.g., human research protection, student counseling services, research and compliance) are also eligible for accreditation. Creighton University’s commitment to quality and integrity in individual academic and non-academic programs is evidenced in the number of Creighton’s academic and non-academic programs that have successfully achieved specialized accreditation.
