PARIS, France – 22nd September 2026 – Kennedy University trustworthy signals are highlighted in an updated institutional records publication detailing current CHEA-listed quality-assurance relationships, state authorizations, and program accreditations.

Institutional administrators note that presenting each record alongside its specific issuing body and defined scope helps maintain clarity across global operations.
“Publishing verified institutional records allows students, credential evaluators, and academic partners to review our documentation with total clarity,” said Evan Miller, Communications Specialist. “Our goal is to ensure every quality-assurance relationship, program authorization, and state recognition is presented accurately within its specific scope and jurisdiction.”

Governmental Authorizations and Institutional Accreditations
Governmental documentation for Kennedy University encompasses distinct state authorizations and regional institutional accreditations across multiple jurisdictions:
- French Private Institutional Degrees: Kennedy University is documented on the French Ministry of Education web portal as an online educational institution authorized to confer private institutional degrees.
- Somali State Authorizations: Kennedy University holds formal governmental authorizations from the Ministries of Higher Education in Galmudug State and Hirshabelle State, granting authority to confer bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees.

Record Separation Within the Kennedy University System
