The International Program Accreditation Portal (IPAP) has multiple functions. First, it provides a mechanism for higher education institutions in the UAE to provide program information concerning their national and international accreditation status. It also provides a list of credible international accreditation bodies that acts as a guide for institutions in their planning to seek international accreditation for their programs. It also provides a reference database for the public that they can refer to when they need to find information about the consistency of educational programs offered by higher education institutions in the UAE with international quality standards.
