The Benefits Of Becoming Accredited By The World TEFL Accrediting Commission

TEFL Accreditation Organisation
The World TEFL Accrediting Commission (WTEFLAC) is an organization headquartered in New York City that seeks offer accreditation to providers of English courses taught to foreign speakers. If you are an organization that offers English courses in foreign countries you may be wondering what the benefits are of accreditation from WTEFLAC.
One of the best advantages to becoming accredited by the World TEFL Accrediting Commission is that your courses will automatically be viewed with greater credibility. The WTEFLAC has a reputation of requiring excellence from its members. Each member must adhere to a Code of Practice. This Code of Practice covers different aspects of courses, such as advertising, admission policies, the experience of teachers, feedback, and quality assurance. If you are accredited by the WTEFLAC and follow its Code of Practice students who participate in your courses will have the assurance that they are receiving courses that are valuable to their learning.
Another benefit you may receive from becoming accredited by WTEFLAC is that you could see an increase in both the number and quality of students who participate in your courses. There are many students who specifically seek to take courses that are accredited under the WTEFLAC standards. Students want to make sure that they are taking courses of value and courses that will be recognized by others that they are of value. One of the ways they can do this is by taking courses that are accredited by the WTEFLAC. Students who value this sort of accreditation are often higher quality, more sophisticated students.
The last benefit of becoming accredited by the World TEFL Accrediting Commission is that your reputation as a quality provider of English courses will increase. The types of students who enroll in courses that are from accredited providers are likely those who are committed to achieving their language goals. When they take courses from an organization they can trust their achievement can be greater. When students achieve in the classroom they often share their achievements with others. These are the types of students who you want enrolled in your courses because they can increase your reputation. They will let their friends and acquaintances know that they valued the courses that you offered. Those friends and acquaintances may then become interested in enrolling also.
The accreditation process of the World TEFL Accrediting Commission is not difficult, but it is valuable to those who seek to provide quality English courses in foreign countries. If you are a provider of such courses, accreditation can provide you with credibility, an increase in the amount and quality of students and an increased reputation for valuable English courses.

  1. Students considering enrollment in the TEFL Institute of Chicago (www.teflinstitute.com) which CLAIMS to be accredited by WTEFLAC should proceed with greatest caution. Careful research on-line will reveal countless negative reviews on this organization. (YELP, www.glassdoor.com, www.goOverseas.com, www.facebook.com/TheTruthAboutTEFLInstitute). Fraudulent business practices are obviously the hallmark of this organization.

    Individuals who HAVE been defrauded by TEFL Institute should IMMEDIATELY contact their Credit Card company or issuing bank/credit union and DISPUTE the charges made to one's credit card. The key word is DISPUTE, and it is your legal right. FRAUD or failure to deliver promised services are LEGITIMATE reasons for initiating this FREE dispute resolution process which is guaranteed by Federal Law. While the investigation is underway, charges are reversed in your favour.

    DO NOT register or pay money to TEFL Institute without doing your homework. You along with hundreds of students (and dozens of unpaid teachers) will regret your decision!
