The accreditation of Full distance universities is not legalized and does not follow a defined specefic pattern in the world including USA. The Edexcel/BETEC of Uk is issuing professional diploma on basis of work experince of the British people there and it is legal in U.K. and all diplomas issued used to be accepted by employers there. Why this could be considred legal in USA when done by other educational institutions like Princely International University ? They are doing their job at a satisfactory level of recording the work experince of people and issuing diplomas in the same pattern of Edexcel/BETEC and their diplomas could be cosidred accredited in the same category.
