Accreditation

The Priory Institute offers accredited certificates, higher certificates, diplomas and degrees. Course validation relates to  quality assurance. It is a process under which educational programmes are evaluated by a government authorised, external agency to determine if all applicable standards are met. Only those courses  that meet these quality assurance standards become validated.

The Priory Institute's 'suite of courses', including all major and minor award courses, as well as all modules that are available for single subject certification, has been evaluated by an external course validation board. These expert panels have determined that all applicable quality assurance standards have been met.

ECTS (European Credit Transfer System) Currently, the Institute's academic courses are validated by the Technological University Dublin .
