Sybil,
Absolutely! Because there is spelled institutional and programmatic accreditation, you must be able to explain how the accreditation works.

Knowing which addreditation your institution has is half the battle. If you have multiple programs at your school it is equally important to know which programs are accredited as well.

Very true! But people connect they want the most current and thorough information.

Nothing is more frustrating than contacting a representative of an institution who doesn't convey the knowledge or expertise. It's vital to continue to educate yourself as the institution representative to share that knowledge and expertise with your prospective student.
Rebekah,
They trust us and rely on us for comprehensive information. That is our role in admissions to work with the student.

Absolutely! This will show your prospective student that you are an expert when it comes to knowing about your campus.
I agree highly with this statement. That is one of the most commonly asked questions that I get in this business because it has so much leverage on many other educational aspects of a students career.

It depends upon the industry and upon the employer.

What do employers consider more important...if the prospective employee has a degree from an accredited educational institution or whether the prospective employee has certain certifications attained?
Meredith ,
Agreed! Accreditation is very different whether it is institutional or programmatic. The matter what make sure that the accreditation is recognized by US DOE.
