Home / For accreditors

Supporting accreditation, not replacing it.

Accreditation decides whether an institution meets a standard. A ranking compares institutions that already do. We aim to be a useful, independent resource for the bodies that set and enforce those standards.

What we offer

  • Verification findings. Where our checks surface inconsistencies, for example a provider claiming a recognition it does not hold, we may share the facts with the competent authority.
  • Referrals. Credible reports of degree mills and accreditation mills received through hi@rankinglab.org may be passed to the relevant authority.
  • Open data. Aggregate, source-linked evidence on how programs integrate AI, published under CC BY 4.0 for research and policy use.
  • Method transparency. Our rubric and its revisions are public, so they can be scrutinized and improved.

What we do not do

  • We do not accredit, certify or license institutions or programs.
  • We do not publish allegations of fraud; we report verifiable facts to those empowered to act.
  • We do not claim affiliation with, or endorsement by, any accreditation body.
