However, the Consortium itself was not degree-granting; it functioned as the officially authorized extension of the member schools. In order to ensure the international usefulness of the programs offered, both for enrolled government staff and general public beneficiaries, EUCLID was chartered and accredited in May 2008 as a free-standing intergovernmental institution and as member of the Consortium.
