On September 7, 2010 the GCREAS headquarters were inaugurated in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, on space provided by the Dominican professional association of Engineers, Architects and Land Surveyors (CODIA). The event represents another step toward the independence and autonomous operation of the Regional Engineering Accreditation System for the Greater Caribbean, as a quality assurance agency for engineering education programs in the region. In this way, the GCREAS project international initiative, financed by the Inter American Development Bank (IADB), with contributions from the Technological Institute of Santo Domingo (INTEC) and the Government of the Doominican Republic, through the Ministry of Higher Education, Science & Technology (MESCyT), as well as from institutions in Panama and Jamaica, and the Hewlett Packard Laboratories, arrive at a crucial milestone in the formation of the international accrediting agency.
