Well, be careful here...

Accredited means different things to different people.

ITT is accredited but, their credits DON"T transfer anywhere.
So for example if you received a Bachelors degree from ITT and wanted to
get a Masters....      NO ONE would accept that degree.. Except ITT.
You could go back there and get credit..

Same thing with Associates Degree.. Get it at ITT and most colleges in
the area will not recognize it..

Not sure DeVry is the same.....
There are A LOT of uncredited schools out there.

I took some continuing education on line from University of IL. and was
very  happy..


Good luck with that..
