Hondros College is accredited by ACICS (a national accreditor) and not by one of the regional accreditors. In Ohio, the regional body is the North Central Association.

What this means for you is that, while the education may be useful and you can get a job with it (provided you also have the other job prerequisites like experience and ability) – if you want to use this education for entry into higher learning (such as getting a bachelor’s degree) then you may face a challenge.

Most of their programs are vocational and pre-licensing. In this case, it really doesn’t matter where you went to school as long as you are eligible for the state exam for that profession and you get a license. It’s the license that’s important, that’s what employers will care about. An example: if you want to be a real estate salesman in Ohio, having an MBA from Harvard is of no use if you don’t have an Ohio real estate license.

Your question to Hondros should be “what is your pass rate on the xyz exam?” to help determine whether their programs are effective.

Good luck.

This appears to be a local career college focused on real estate and related careers. If you plan on moving out of the area, I would have to warn you that it is unknown elsewhere, and if you only have a certificate, rather than a degree, you will have trouble. If you are going to stay in the area, find out how much local major companies in the industry are involved in the college. If they are funding things there and providing projects of various sorts for students to work on, then they will support the graduates as well. You might want to talk to some companies locally to see what their opinion is.
