Welcome to the Canadian Education Quality Assessment Council
Vision
To be a leading authority in quality assurance for competency-based education, promoting public trust through transparent, consistent, and innovation-friendly accreditation.
Mission
To advance educational excellence and ethical practices among education providers through independent accreditation, peer review, and continuous improvement.
Why CEQAC Exists
Education is evolving faster than ever. Micro-credentials, online learning, corporate training programs, and skills-based certifications are opening new pathways to careers and economic opportunity.
But rapid innovation brings challenges. Without consistent quality standards, learners face uncertainty. Employers struggle to evaluate credentials. And innovative providers—those genuinely committed to learner success—lack third-party validation that distinguishes them from low-quality competitors.
What Do We Do
We provide rigorous, peer-reviewed accreditation designed specifically for non-institutional education providers. Our standards are grounded in competency-based learning, emphasize outcomes over inputs, and balance innovation with learner protection.
We believe quality assurance should strengthen the sector, not stifle it. CEQAC accreditation isn’t just about compliance—it’s a strategic opportunity for providers to improve their practices, demonstrate accountability, and enhance learner outcomes.
