Accreditation

Ensuring excellence in teacher education through rigorous institutional accreditation and professional development programme validation.

TRCN Accreditation

The Teachers Registration Council of Nigeria (TRCN) is responsible for overseeing and accrediting teacher education and professional development programmes across the country. This mandate is fulfilled through two distinct accreditation pathways:

• Institutional Accreditation

TRCN conducts Institutional Accreditation for Colleges of Education and Faculties of Education in Universities. This process ensures that Initial Teacher Education (ITE) programmes meet the national standards and that institutions uphold the minimum entry requirements and curriculum benchmarks for teacher preparation.

• MCPD Accreditation

Through Mandatory Continuing Professional Development (MCPD) Accreditation, TRCN evaluates and approves course providers and their learning programmes. These courses are mapped to TRCN's approved MCPD modules and support continuous professional growth for registered educators.
