Who we work with
- Intensive English and independent language schools preparing for initial CEA accreditation, reaccreditation, or adding a new site or program.
- Universities pursuing accreditation from the Middle States Commission on Higher Education or another institutional accreditor.
- International programs that must satisfy an international accreditor and a national ministry at the same time.
Why schools choose AccrediLingua
We bring an independent, experienced eye to your program and identify gaps before they become findings. We write policy that traces every requirement to the exact standard or regulation it answers. Then we help you put it into practice, with implementation plans that follow best practice. The goal is lasting institutional health and programs that truly serve students, not just a successful site visit. Our background spans teaching and working in multilingual, multi-regulator environments, not only in the US.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you guarantee accreditation?
No one honestly can. We can make sure your evidence, policies, and narrative give you the strongest possible case. Staying in compliance remains your institution’s responsibility.
Is our work confidential?
Yes. Everything you share with us, including documents, data, and conversations, is kept strictly confidential.
What is AccrediLingua’s relationship with CEA?
Our founder, Diana Coetzee, serves CEA as a volunteer peer reviewer, and AccrediLingua’s consulting is entirely separate. AccrediLingua is independent and is not affiliated with or endorsed by CEA. We follow CEA’s conflict-of-interest and confidentiality protocols, and we never consult for a program Diana is reviewing or has reviewed within the past two years. Peer reviewers do not make accreditation decisions and do not speak for the CEA Commission.
Do you work remotely, and across time zones?
Yes. Most work happens online, with on-site visits available when needed. We work with clients across time zones, from the Americas to East Asia.
