THE National Accreditation Council of Guyana (NAC) wishes to advise the public that the American Medical Institution is not registered with the NAC as is legally required for post-secondary and tertiary educational institutions operating in Guyana.

In a release, the NAC said it has come to its attention that the said institution which has been operating out of the Chritchlow Labour College on Woolford Avenue has informed its students and members of the public that it has been granted approval to operate by Mr. Vincent Alexander, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the NAC.

“Please be advised that the Chairman has not, on any occasion or for any reason, granted approval. This institution is not known to the NAC. The NAC would like to appeal to the public, especially prospective students, to check with NAC’s office which is located at 109 Barima Avenue, Bel-Air Park, Georgetown, to ensure that their institution and programme of choice are registered with and approved by the NAC.”
