Helms College—a private, independent postsecondary career school sponsored by Goodwill Industries of Middle Georgia Inc., and licensed by the Georgia Non-public Post-Secondary Education Commission—offers accredited programs through its two hospitality schools, as well as its new School of Health Services.

Accreditation & Licensing

Helms College and its culinary programs (the Polly Long Denton School of Hospitality in Macon and the Augusta School of Hospitality) are licensed by the Georgia Nonpublic Postsecondary Education Commission (GNPEC) and nationally accredited by the Accrediting Council for Continuing Education & Training (ACCET).

Accreditation serves the interests of companies, agencies, and the public through the establishment of standards, policies, and procedures in conjunction with an objective third-party professional evaluation designed to identify and inspire sound education and training practices. When such a process is matched by an institution’s commitment to high standards and accountability, a partnership for quality becomes reality.
