The National Council for Accreditation of Medical Colleges (NCAMC) was established in February 2015 as an expansion of The National Committee for Accreditation of Medical Colleges in Iraq. It receives its authority from the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research to become the formal reference to academic accreditation in Iraq based on the standards stated in the Iraqi National Guideline on Standards for Establishing and Accrediting Medical Colleges (INGSEAMC).
* This accrediting agency is currently recognized by the World Federation for Medical Education (WFME) Programme for Recognition of Accreditation Agencies. This recognition by WFME does not imply that all medical schools operating in this country are currently accredited by the agency. Please refer to the accrediting agency directly for information regarding the accreditation status of specific medical schools.
