I think you misread what I said. I was trying to suggest that accreditation can be a red herring and is not an indicator but the perception of the degree value is.
We normally just determine the validity of the degree and it not being fake. However, it does arise that firms are concerned with places they have never heard of and where they are run and accredited by places you can't find on the Internet.
I wouldn't get turned on by programs registered with the Education Bureau as even the wall of shame guys are listed there with the good ones that I was careful to suggest are doing good things.
What programs are you referencing?
