According to § 4 para. 3 of the Partial Basic Regulations for the Quality Management System of RPTU, there are two internal accreditation commissions (ACOs) in Landau. The ACOs are commissions of the Landau Senate authorised to make decisions in accordance with § 6 of the Statutes for Quality Assurance and Development in Studies and Teaching at RPTU in Landau.
The composition and convening of the Internal Accreditation Commissions is regulated in § 6 of the Statutes for Quality Assurance and Development in Studies and Teaching at the Rhineland-Palatinate University of Technology Kaiserslautern-Landau.
Tasks of the internal accreditation commissions

- Examination of accreditation for teacher training programmes and non-teacher training programmes
- Passing resolutions on accreditations
- Passing resolutions on conditions and recommendations for accreditations
