Physical Therapist Assisting
Accreditation
Accreditation is a process used to measure and certify the credibility
and quality of services offered by an organization.
The PTA Program is separately accredited by CAPTE, the
Commission on Accreditation in Physical
Therapy Education.
Additionally, GateWay is accredited by the
Higher Learning Commission of the North
Central Association of Colleges and Schools.
Why should you choose an accredited school?
Although many schools offer seemingly similar degree and certification
options, not all schools are accredited. In many instances, accreditation of
the degree or program you complete may be required in order to become
certified to work in the field.
