They are accredited by the DETC (not as valid as if they were accredited by a regional accreditor) but many of their courses have been evaluated by the ACE and will transfer to colleges that accept ACE evaluation for credit.
They are legitimate and among the DL trade schools are probably one of the better schools.
If you want a degree that will transfer to a 4-year college then there are much better options out there but for a trade/vocational credential, they are adequate.
