Accreditation

Zollikon Institute’s accredited courses give Zollikon students college credits.  All of Zollikon Institute’s accredited courses are offered through a partnership with Malone University. Zollikon/Malone courses will be offered with sensitivity to the Amish and Mennonite community.

Malone University, a Christian university located in Canton, Ohio, has been continuously accredited by the Higher Learning Commission (HLC) since 1964. Malone’s 10-year accreditation stands until the next reaffirmation appointment in 2022-2023.

The HLC is a regional accreditation agency that accredits degree-granting colleges and universities located in a 19-state region of the United States.  Regional accreditation is recognized by the U.S. Department of Education for evaluating the quality of an institution holistically, including academic programming, governance, and financial feasibility.  Their institutional accreditation considers onsite and online offerings at all degree levels.
