The International Council for Open and Distance Education (ICDE)[1] is a membership-led global organization in the field of online, open, flexible and technology enhanced education. It consists of more than 190 higher education institutions and organizations in some 71 countries.[2]

ICDE does not provide educational accreditation to its members. Its website states: "Claims that ICDE provides institutional accreditation or the unauthorized use of the ICDE logo on websites or marketing materials is strictly prohibited and will result in withdrawal of membership."[3]
