The non-profit accreditation agency of the Association of Advanced Rabbinical and Talmudic Schools, or otherwise known at AARTS, is a New York base agency recognized by the Council on Higher Education Accreditation. There are around 60 programs of the Rabbinical and Talmudic studies that boast the accrediting seal of AARTS.

AARTS is an independently run organization, made up of experts in the field of Rabbinical and Talmudic training, which sets educational standards in the field throughout the country. There are both undergraduate and graduate programs that fall under the spell of the association's accrediting wand. All of these programs must meet set standards in education, finance and graduate requirements in order to be considered for accreditation.

In the field of Rabbinical and Talmudic education the association sees itself as both a gatekeeper and a historical authority. They aim to hold traditional thought in a modern world through balance of the old and new.
