We are thrilled to announce that American Management University (AMU), the online university focused on providing high-quality business education, has been accredited by the Independent Institute of Accreditation, Rating and Certification (IARC/NIARS) based in Kyrgyzstan.

IARC/NIARS is the leading accreditation agency in the Kyrgyz Republic, providing institutional and program accreditation for higher and vocational education institutions. As an internationally recognized accreditation body, IARC’s stamp of approval is a mark of quality and excellence.

Created in 2019, IARC/NIARS carries out its activities in accordance with the laws and regulations of the Kyrgyz Republic. In 2021, the Institute obtained a license from the Ministry of Education and Science of the Kyrgyz Republic to accredit programs in areas such as “Expert in the field of education,” “IT,” and “I&C”. IARC has also fostered collaborations within the country, including a memorandum of cooperation with the Agency for Education Quality Control and Career Development, and an agreement with the Kyrgyz-Turkish Manas University.

Notably, in 2023, the NIARS Research Department developed methodologies for the formation of the national rating of colleges in the Kyrgyz Republic, which were duly registered. Moreover, on July 4, 2023, NIARS PF became a full member of the International Network of Quality Assurance Agencies in Higher Education (INQAAHE), a prestigious global association with over 300 member organizations.

This IARC/NIARS accreditation is a testament to the quality and excellence of the programs offered by American Management University. To preserve the validity of this 5-year accreditation, it is essential that the institution’s QAHE accreditation remains in good standing at all times. We are very happy that IARC is highly supportive to make the entire process fast and efficient.

Our team of experts at QAHE will work closely with AMU to ensure seamless compliance and ongoing quality improvement.
