I wonder if splitting the responsibility for education and awarding credentials would be a better idea. It would open up some real competition in education and weaken the stranglehold the elite establishments have.
Medicine and Law have separate credentialing systems, but the requirements to become eligible to take the tests usually require you to go to an accredited organization and the med school orgs are notoriously fickle about expansion.
I thought my college education was fantastic, I know chem engineering and became very good at math.
However, due to my college being lazy and never getting ABET accredited in my Chem engineering degree, I cant become a P.E. despite passing the PE and FE tests. Stupid college I suppose. I make tons of money as a degreed engineer though...
