Information on the agency's work

GAC has the legal form of a foundation of public law. It was originally set up by the North Rhine-Westphalian Law establishing a foundation “Foundation for the Accreditation of Study Programmes in Germany” of 15 February 2005. With the Interstate Study Accreditation Treaty, which came into force on 1 January 2018, the name of the foundation was changed to “Foundation Accreditation Council ”. In international contexts, the foundation is referred to as the German Accreditation Council.
