Ayurveda is reaching hundreds of thousands of people searching for a better path for a healthy life, and this reach is growing every day. With this growing interest and increased demand, there is an urgent need to ensure high quality training and care.

Accreditation provides a level of assurance to students and the public that an institution meets established quality benchmarks. It builds trust and confidence in the education provided.
— Anupama Kizhakkeveettil, Program Director of Ayurvedic Medicine at Southern California University of Health Sciences
 

OUR VISION

Accreditation of educational institutions is necessary to maintain and enhance the quality of education, ensure students' trust and encourage continuous improvement, foster global recognition, protect consumers, and promote accountability in the education sector. It serves the interests of students, educators, employers, and society at large. It also contributes to the progression of Ayurvedic medicine licensure in the United States.
