This paper presents the ABET accreditation journey undertaken by three engineering programs at the Mediterranean Institute of Technology (MedTech). The accreditation journey involves distinct phases: planning, preparation, implementation, submission, and visit. The paper discusses milestones and sheds light on challenges faced by engineering programs in non-native English-speaking countries, including the impact of language barriers and the obstacles encountered within the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite these challenges, MedTech successfully completed the ABET accreditation journey, demonstrating its commitment to providing quality education and continuous improvement in its engineering programs. Drawing from MedTech's experience, the paper concludes with recommendations for engineering programs pursuing similar accreditations. By sharing these insights, this paper contributes to the understanding of the accreditation process and supports the advancement in engineering education worldwide.
