In response to the concept of quality education in construction, The American Council for Construction Education has created a recognition program for non-degree, career related education programs. This effort to recognize the providers and programs which have a quality process and content is aimed at providing education other than skills training. This is NOT accreditation, as it is not aimed at degree granting programs.
The following providers and their specific programs listed have met the standards established by ACCE and are currently recognized for their contributions to the construction industry.
National Association of Home Builders
Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist
NAWIC Education Foundation
Certified Construction Associate Program
Construction Bookkeeping Technician
