A Note on Public Health Program Accreditation

The United States Department of Education and the Council for Higher Education Accreditation recognize six different regional accreditation organizations. These accreditation organizations accredit several thousand educational institutions, both public and private, ranging from the preschool level to the university level in the U.S. However, a professional degree such as master of public health (MPH) must receive additional accreditation by the Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH).
