The Uganda Institutional accreditation or permitting institutions to exist and deliver higher education is a key tool of quality assurance. It is a process through which institutions are assessed at various stages before they are licensed.

It covers all aspects of institutions; including land, staffing, educational facilities, governance, financial resources, and physical facilities.

In processing the applications for accreditation, the NCHE follows the provisions of the University and Other Tertiary Institutions Act, 200I, which empowers the NCHE to make regulations to ensure the provision of quality higher education. Accordingly, the NCHE has issued a number of Statutory Instruments.
