In Canada, private career education is provincially approved and regulated. Private career colleges in Nova Scotia are registered and regulated under the Private Career Colleges Regulation Act, which means career college instructors must meet specific requirements and are registered by the Department of Education. Therefore, you should look for a statement by the college that it is approved by the Nova Scotia provincial government as a base-line measure of quality.

Private career colleges in Canada are not accredited the same way that university or community colleges and programs are. However, the Nova Scotia government recognizes certain accrediting agencies that have established standards for institutions and or programs. Accreditation is voluntary and is verified by an independent accrediting body, thereby providing further evidence that a college is committed to its students and to offering them a high-quality education.
