Sprachschulen Akkreditierung in England Folgende Akkreditierungsgesellschaften findet man in England bzw. Großbritannien und United Kingdom: 1. BRITISH COUNCIL 2. ARELS 3. BASELT 4. ABLS 5. BALEAP 6. BATQI Many language teaching schools and colleges throughout the English-speaking world are recognised by accrediting organisations. These schemes help students wanting to attend an English language teaching school to know whether its courses have an official guarantee of quality. Most English speaking countries run national accreditation schemes for their language schools. Some schemes are run directly by governments and others by government agencies. There are also non-governmental associations of schools that offer guarantees of quality for their members’ courses. A large and possibly confusing number of accreditation schemes exist. Many of them overlap each other. All of them apply different tests of quality assurance. The British Council regularly inspects organisations in Britain offering courses in English as a foreign language. If they meet high standards of quality they are "accredited by the British Council". There are over 370 schools, colleges and universities throughout Britain accredited by the British Council. They offer a range of courses in English at all levels and for all ages. They can all arrange accommodation and many organise a social programme for students. The Commission on English Language Program Accreditation is an American organisation which aims to: Advance standards and promote excellence in English language instruction and in the administration of English language programs and institutions. Provide an objective means to review the quality of programs and institutions using validated standards of the profession through voluntary peer review. Use trained and experienced professionals to take part in identifying the strengths and areas of improvement of English language programs and institutions seeking accreditation. Publicly recognise programs and institutions that meet the standards. Assure the quality of English language programs and institutions for students and the public. British Council The British Council regularly inspects organisations in the UK offering courses in English as a foreign language.
