ECTE accreditation of alternative providers of higher education indicates that the learning opportunities offered by European Nazarene College are compliant with the European Standards and Guidelines for higher education and attests to the level of the learning opportunities according to the European Quality Framework. While this accreditation provides affirmation of the level and quality of the programmes, ECTE does not grant degrees and so these are not officially recognized degrees of the German educational system.
