University Council of Jamaica
Jamaica's accreditation body with registers of accredited institutions and programmes
By University Council of Jamaica
What it does
The University Council of Jamaica is the national quality assurance and accreditation body for higher education, operating as an agency of the Ministry of Education, Skills, Youth and Information. It accredits institutions and individual programmes, assesses foreign credentials, and publishes the standards used in those reviews.
Its registered institutions page carries the searchable register of accredited institutions and programmes, with a separate section listing accredited overseas programmes delivered in Jamaica. Prospective students and employers use it to check whether a degree carries UCJ accreditation, a separate question from whether the school is registered with the Jamaica Tertiary Education Commission.
The services section covers institutional accreditation, programme accreditation and credential assessment, with application forms obtainable from the site or the office. A media centre publishes notices and accreditation announcements.
