Mark Goetsch discusses accreditation as a process to verify that certifications, universities, and frameworks meet standards for disseminating and teaching enterprise architecture knowledge and skills. The process accredits how knowledge is gathered and shared, not the information itself. Accreditation ensures terminology is consistently taught and mapped, and that skills are challenged and applied to a practicum with consistent standards. It also aims to accredit professional practice skills like ethics. The accreditation process will develop an online registry of accredited architects and determine what additional information it should contain. Stakeholder involvement is needed to help shape and administer the accreditation process.
