The DASCA accreditation program is open for universities, business schools, higher-education institutions, and degree-granting government ICT academies. Importantly, a select few institutions offering DASCA-accredited programs get an exclusive opportunity to start a specialist center of excellence in data science on DASCA knowledge framework. Institutions offering DASCA-accredited programs also develop the expertise to introduce standalone Bachelor’s and Master’s programs in Data Science, if they do not have them yet. DASCA-accredited Bachelor’s and Master’s programs are integrated with DASCA’s certifications.
DASCA also selectively accepts applications from some institutions to get their non-technology professional degree programs accredited for offering data science and data analytics courses as electives or minors.
