Accreditation

After careful consideration and thorough deliberation, the School of Public Health has decided not to pursue re-accreditation with the U.S. (CEPH). CEPH is an independent agency recognized by the US Department of Education to accredit schools/ programs of public health.

This decision was reached following a comprehensive review process, taking into account various factors including costs, program flexibility, and our commitment to excellence in education. Of note, amongst the various schools and programs for public health education in Canada, the majority have not pursued CEPH accreditation.

As we look ahead, we remain committed to upholding the highest standards of education, research, and community engagement. We will continue to prioritize the success of our students and the impact of our programs on public health both locally and globally.
