 While there are national bodies providing institutional accreditation for non-traditional schools, their members are mainly for-profit schools and the accreditation has limited recognition.The recognized body for programmatic accreditation in engineering and applied science (including computing) was the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, now called ABET, Inc.This accreditation is essentially for undergraduate degree programs; also, ABET does not accredit programs from independent professional schools.
