The DEAC Logo


Our logo embeds a compass rose within the DEAC abbreviation. We chose the compass rose to symbolize DEAC’s commitment to charting a bold future and direction for distance education accreditation, where accountability meets innovation in creative, meaningful ways that assure a high quality experience for the student.

Copies of the logo, as well as the DEAC Brand Logo Standards Guide are available to DEAC-accredited institutions. Please contact Jessica Lucey via email to obtain a copy of the Guide.
