ITEFLAC is an international quality assurance agency, working to improve quality assurance standards of TEFL/TESOL organizations all over the world. With its global network of experts, ITEFLAC grants accreditation to TEFL/TESOL course providers. Regional accreditation bodies have dutifully evaluated education providers on a regional scale and granted them Primary Accreditation. However, the rapid growth of globalization calls for a global entity which can evaluate them against internationally proven standards of education and grant them an internationally recognized Secondary Accreditation. ITEFLAC provides international accreditation to the TEFL/TESOL course providers to serve as secondary accreditation, enhance the entity's regional accreditation and assures stakeholders that the educational program, policies and procedures of the institute are up to the international standards of quality. ITEFLAC's International Accreditation represents an education provider's commitment to delivering quality which is on a par with the global standards. It assures the stakeholders that their TEFL/TESOL qualifications will have increased acceptability around the world, should they decide to work abroad. The International Accreditation that a TEFL/TESOL course provider is awarded by ITEFLAC gives a competitive edge over all regional and international TEFL/TESOL course providers and institutes.
