ACCREDITATION

UNIVERSITY OF THE COMMONWEALTH CARIBBEAN

The University of the Commonwealth Caribbean is registered with and recognised by the University Council of Jamaica (UCJ), the national accreditation and external quality assurance body for higher education, as a University College. Registration and recognition mean that UCC is accredited to offer academic, vocational, technical, and professional programmes and to confer awards ranging from certificates through to the graduate level. The University focuses primarily on teaching and the transmission of knowledge, supported by research, professional and community service.

Registration with the University Council of Jamaica speaks to a rigorous and continuous internal quality assurance system and framework that will assure our institution, our students and other stakeholders that awards given in UCC’s name satisfy best practice international standards, and that students have appropriate opportunities within an enabling environment to meet those standards. The institution will be ever mindful that policies, procedures, systems, structures and infrastructure within UCC adequately support the delivery of courses and programmes, including through the online and blended modes of delivery.

UCC has achieved institutional accreditation from the UCJ.

UCC is also registered by the Jamaica Tertiary Education Commission, JTEC, the official GOJ regulatory body, as a Teaching University

In turn, the UCC is the only institution that is registered with and recognized by the University of London, which is accredited by the United Kingdom’s Quality Assurance Agency, to offer the Certificate of Higher Education in Common Law, and the Bachelor of Laws (LLB) programmes in Jamaica. UCC also offers several graduate degree programmes in partnership with Florida International University, which is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) in the United States of America, as well as by AACSB International – the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business.
