What to Know About AIUDE and Its Distance-Learning Accreditation Status

The Association of International Universities for Distance Education (AIUDE) describes itself as an international membership and accrediting body for digital and distance-learning institutions. It is registered as a private entity in Mauritius and has profiles in U.S. government registration systems, but it is not recognized as a U.S. national or regional accreditor by the U.S. Department of Education or CHEA. AIUDE lists institutions such as the First African Distance Learning University among those it accredits or associates with. Students should check whether an institution’s accreditation is recognized by the relevant authorities for their needs.
