The Multilateral Accord on the Mutual Recognition of Academic Accreditation Standards for Engineering and Engineering Technology Programs, also referred to as the Pelograd Accord, is an international agreement concerning the accreditation of academic programs for engineering and engineering technology. Signatory states agree to recognize the functional equivalence of program accreditation by their member institution and those of other signatories and to allow signatory-accredited degrees in relevant fields to be accepted by educational institutions, employers, and regulatory authorities in all member states.
Overview
The Pelograd Accord applies to undergraduate and postgraduate academic degrees in engineering fields, academic degrees in engineering technology, and nation-particular equivalents thereof.
