Accrediting Bureau of Health Education Schools

Overview

Established in 1969 and officially recognized by the U.S. Department of Education (USDOE), the Accrediting Bureau of Health Education Schools (ABHES) is an independent non-profit organization responsible for the national institutional accreditation of private, postsecondary institutions in the United States offering predominantly allied health education programs leading to a certificate, diploma and degrees at the level of the Associate of Applied Science, Associate of Occupational Science, Academic Associate, Baccalaureate and Master.

ABHES's purpose is also to provide programmatic accreditation of a wide range of health education programs, including medical assisting, dental assisting, pharmacy technician, surgical technology, nursing and many others including those offered via distance education.
The ABHES accreditation process involves a comprehensive evaluation of each program's educational quality, curriculum, faculty qualifications, student services and institutional resources. The accreditation standards are designed to ensure that students receive a high-quality education that prepares them for successful careers in the healthcare industry.

Accreditation by ABHES is recognized by the United States Department of Education (USDOE) and is an important credential for institutions seeking to establish themselves as providers of high-quality health education programs. ABHES accreditation is also recognized by many employers, professional organizations and licensing agencies, which can help graduates of accredited programs obtain employment and advance in their careers.
