Its founding purpose was, and still is today, “to foster and preserve high quality, educationally sound and widely accepted distance education and independent learning institutions.” The DETC has emerged as the leading national accrediting association in distance education, and its reputation for identifying reputable, high quality distance education institutions has made it world renown in the field of educational quality assurance.
