INSTITUTIONAL ACCREDITATION


The Dyslexia Association of Singapore, together with the Centre for Child Evaluation & Teaching (CCET) of Kuwait, are the first two organisations to achieve the International Dyslexia Association’s Institutional Accreditation. 


IDA Institutional Accreditation is a formal recognition that the institution meets professional standards of operational integrity and quality related to services reasonable within local cultural contexts and consistent with IDA’s values and definition of dyslexia.
