Claim I heard about Cambodian universities not being "internationally accredited"?

[EliEverIsAHero]

What exactly does this mean? 

Someone I knew who had lived several years in Cambodia was complaining that students from Cambodian universities could not find careers abroad easily because degrees from Cambodian universities were "not internationally accredited".

Does this mean that they are simply treated with more scrutiny by WEC, etc.? I've never heard of "international accreditation" as such, but I could imagine a specific country's universities running into Quality Control issues re: credentials evaluators.

There are many institutions in Cambodia, that are private training centers and not real colleges or universities. This is rampant in many South Asian countries, within India alone, there were 36,000 non recognized institutions. Pakistan coming in a distant second to that number... Anyways, that's the gist of it, unless you're going to a Ministry of Education recognized institution, these private ones won't get the international equivalent, think of them as ENEB options for professional development or personal upgrading and that type of use...
