Why Accreditation
Accreditation is a critical part of choosing a quality school. It’s your assurance that the institution upholds standards set forth by an independent accrediting agency that is recognized by the United States Department of Education. In order to receive accreditation, a school must meet specific requirements and be approved by an official review board that certifies its strict adherence to the accrediting body’s standards of academic and institutional criteria.
RCOE School of Career Education is accredited by the Commission of the Council on Occupational Education (COE).
The Accrediting Commission of the Council on Occupational Education (COE) is located at: 7840 Roswell Road, Building 300, Suite 325, Atlanta, GA 30350, www.council.org.

My high school teacher told me about this program so I signed up right when I graduated. I took Registered Dental Assisting and I really liked how quickly this course went. You won’t regret going to SCE and you’ll be extremely proud of yourself when you graduate.

I wanted a career that I could work at part time, making enough money to support myself. While working towards my licensing, I got hired at an orthodontic office after a working interview and the staff is surprised with my orthodontic assisting experience.
