Routes to Achieving an Accredited Educational Programme |
|
|
| |
Accreditation is the approval of an educational programme, giving holders of the programme’s award exemption from the academic requirements for a Textile Institute professional qualification. The Textile Institute accredits courses to both LTI and CText ATI level and considers global applications from academic institutions through to training providers of short courses, on-line and distance learning, both under and post graduate level.
Accreditation of programmes benefits the establishment by:
- setting the department/establishment in the focus of the world textile community;
- including the establishment in the listing of leading international textile education bodies;
- facilitating the maintenance of educational standards between different countries and specializations.
- providing an indication of programme quality and excellence of provision by an international peer-assessment process;
- promoting parity of esteem between those professionally committed to textiles and those in the other major professions (law, accountancy, engineering, etc);
- providing further opportunities for graduates to take up textiles-based careers;
- providing information for maintaining and strengthening the department/establishment against reduction of resources or unwelcome restructuring.
Establishments wishing to submit a programme (or programmes) for accreditation should complete the application form and return it to the Textile Institute with the course documentation, in accordance with the template provided, copies of the University/College prospectus and the appropriate fee.
