ACCET CEA (The Commission on English Language Program Accreditation) The Commission on English Language Program Accreditation (CEA) is a specialized agency for the accreditation of English language programs and institutions in the United States. The agency advances standards, promotes excellence in English language teaching, and ensures the quality of English language teaching and learning for students and their sponsors. In addition, CEA continues on-going consultation with the profession through presentations at national conventions and local conferences and maintains close linkages with founding organizations (AAIEP, NAFSA, TESOL, and UCIEP) through its nomination process and regular distribution of news about accreditation decisions and CEA governance. What does accreditation by CEA mean? Accreditation by CEA means that an English language program has met the CEA Standards for English Language Programs and Institutions, which were developed over a period of years by English language teaching and higher education professionals. The 52 standards fall into areas including Curriculum; Faculty; Facilities, Equipment, and Supplies; Student Services and Program of Study. You can find a list of the specific standards on the CEA web site. Programs that seek CEA accreditation must offer an intensive English program for non-native speakers of English, which meets at least 18 hours a week for at least eight months a year.
