The engineering programs listed below have been accredited by Acredita CI based on the accreditation model under international criteria, as established by the Master Manual for the accreditation of Science-Based Engineering. The Acredita CI evaluation criteria for this process are equivalent to the criteria used by engineering accreditation agencies that are members of the Washington Accord.
The accreditation granted guarantees the quality of the training received by the graduate of the accredited engineering program because it was granted under internationally recognized quality criteria.
These criteria ensure that the professional is prepared to practice the profession because he or she was trained under a world-class graduation profile. This quality guarantee is also for students and their families, and it is also hoped that it will be applied in the future in the field of professional performance in Chile.
From the moment Acredita CI is recognized as a full member of the Washington Accord and with a retroactive period of one year from that date, the mutual recognition of the programs certified by Acredita CI by the member countries of the Accord is activated. This recognition guarantees that students who obtain the professional degree after the date of certification may opt for the revalidation of their professional degree based on the substantial equivalence of the accredited degree.
The signatories of the Washington Accord have committed to make all reasonable efforts to ensure that the bodies responsible for the registration, licensing or professional accreditation of the engineer to practice in their country or territory mutually recognize the substantial equivalence of the engineering programs accredited by other signatories of the Accord for the purposes of the simplified revalidation of the professional degree and thus facilitate professional practice.
If graduates of programs accredited by Acredita CI have obtained their degree before the date of the program accreditation, the signatories of the Accord are not obliged to recognize the substantial equivalence of that degree, but may do so, which is at their discretion.
