Hi Lupita,
When you want to see whether a program is accredited, look for accreditation by a regional body such as Southern Association or Middle States Association or Council on Higher Education. Programs approved by state departments of education or approved for veterans benefits are held to lower standards. In general, programs offered at state colleges and "old line" private colleges will be accredited. This would possibly include University of Phoenix. Proprietary schools such as ITT are generally not accredited.
I used to handle tuition reimbursements at The Hoover Company (vacuum cleaner maker), and we would only approve accredited programs. Hope this is helpful. If you have specific school in mind, let me know and I'll research it for you.
