PrintED®, administered by the Graphic Arts Education and Research Foundation (GAERF®) is a national accreditation and certification program, based on industry standards, for graphic communications courses of study at the secondary and post-secondary levels.
Upon receipt of the Accreditation Application, a program is allowed up to eighteen months to complete the accreditation process.
PrintED has identified six standardsthat encompass the elements of a solid training program. In order for a program to become accredited, it must meet these standards in at least two areas of accreditation, one of which must be Introduction to Graphic Communications.
The Accrediting Council for Collegiate Graphic Communications, Inc. (ACCGC) is an independent body under secretariat services of the Printing Industries of America/Graphic Arts Technical Foundations (PIA/GATF). The Council is comprised of 11 educators and 8 industry personnel in the graphic communications field elected for three-year terms. The ACCGC operates under its own bylaws and is dedicated to the improvement and recognition of collegiate level curricula in graphic communications. |
