The Accrediting Council on Education in Journalism and Mass Communications is pleased to provide the ACEJMC-accredited program seal. The ACEJMC seal conveys to your current and prospective students, as well as your communities of interest, a strong commitment to the highest national standards for education in journalism and mass communications. Displaying the seal also signifies your program's commitment to rigorous assement and continuous improvement. We encourage you to proudly display your program’s accredited status by publishing the seal on your unit's website and in program materials.
To protect the ACEJMC brand, the following guidelines apply to all public representations of the ACEJMC seal:
⦿ The ACEJMC Accreditation Seal is for use by ACEJMC-accredited programs only. Use of the seal by any other entity is not permitted without prior consent from ACEJMC.
⦿ The seal should be displayed in such a way that it clearly and accurately represents which academic unit is accredited (e.g., sequence, department, school, college, etc.).
⦿ When used on your accredited unit’s website, the seal must either link to the ACEJMC homepage or to the list of ACEJMC-accredited programs.
