Accreditation & Institutional Recognition
Clear, verified information about the University's standing, and about what a KUHAS credential is and is not.
What the University Awards
KISSED University of Healing Arts & Sciences awards its own certificates of completion for its programs, courses, continuing education and workshops. A certificate records completion of KUHAS educational requirements, assessed by the University.
Four Different Things, Often Confused
Institutional accreditation or recognition is a judgement made about a school by an external body. A KUHAS credential is a certificate of completion awarded by this University for education you completed and we assessed. External professional board certification is granted by an independent board that sets its own eligibility, examination and renewal rules. State or government licensure is legal permission to practise a regulated profession, granted only by a government authority. One does not produce another, and no school can grant the last two.
Accreditation & Recognition Status
Institutional accreditation and formal recognition are conferred by external bodies, not by a university about itself. For that reason KISSED University publishes a statement about its own accreditation, recognition, state approval or registration status only after the University has verified the exact status and the exact body, and has approved the wording. If you need this information for a licensing board, an employer or another institution, contact the University directly and you will receive a written answer rather than a marketing claim.
Education Is Not Licensure
Completion of a KUHAS program, course or workshop does not itself constitute state, provincial or national licensure, registration or the legal right to practise a regulated profession. Licensure is granted only by a government authority and its requirements differ by jurisdiction and profession.
Education Is Not External Board Certification
A KUHAS certificate is separate from certification granted by an external certifying board or professional association. Where such a board exists it sets its own eligibility, examination and renewal requirements, and the University does not grant, guarantee or control its decisions.
Transfer of Credit
Acceptance of KUHAS coursework by another institution is always that institution's decision. The University's own position on transfer credit into its programs is confirmed by the University.
No Guaranteed Outcomes
The University does not guarantee employment, income, clients, licensure eligibility, certification eligibility or clinical outcomes.
Asking Us Directly
If a board, employer or institution needs a written statement about the University's status or about the education you completed, contact the University through KISSED U Concierge and the responsible office will respond in writing.
