Q: Is Trinity Tech accredited?
A: Yes. Trinity Tech is accredited by several authorities, including the Interfaith Education Ministries (IEM) and the Association for Online Academic Excellence. The Interfaith Education Ministries (IEM) awards accreditation to innovative institutes who have established relationships with major corporations worldwide. IEM, founded in 1965, provides educational and professional credentials to qualifying institutes of traditional, non-traditional, religious and online and distance education programs of all types. Accreditation by this agency is not contingent upon being considered a religious institute. Although Trinity Tech is not a religious institute and makes no claim to be, we do meet IEM’s educational standards and thus qualify for their accreditation.
The Association for Online Academic Excellence (AOAEX) is a private accrediting agency that ensures online distance learning programs are credible and meet high standards of educational excellence. Accreditation by AOAEX ensures that degrees issued by Trinity Tech represent legitimate credentials to be accepted by small, medium, and large companies across the United States, and around the world. However, this accreditation is not the same as regional accreditation, meaning we are unable to participate in the Federal Student Aid program or the GI Bill, and cannot guarantee that everyone will accept your degree. If you are unsure about whether your current or prospective employer will accept your degree, please contact them before applying to Trinity Tech. We strictly adhere to AOAEX’s high standards for experiential learning programs with the intention of seeking regional accreditation in the future. Any changes to Trinity Tech’s accreditation status will be announced immediately on this web site.
