So to avoid fake printed degrees, they go through a company that verifies the equivalency (which then would certify a fake degree).
NACES certified equivalent degree carries the same weight as a degree from US accredited school for all practical purposes. The schools that have US accreditation abroad are mostly just US schools catering for expats in those countries.
The scrutiny for employment is more strict than education. Some universities accept UK A-level/GCSE/Bachelors from the better known schools, but I don't know if any airlines accept anything without the equivalency certification. I had to go through that process for a damn regional.
