So it either matters, or it doesn't. In cases were it matters, your cutesy personal school isn't going to me the requirements. In cases where it doesn't matter then it just doesn't matter. So creating a school is 100% pointless. To answer your question, governments and any other employers who have codified job requirements (large ones, mostly), and maybe others. My husband spent two decades in the Navy, was hired for his job based entirely on his Navy experience, and still was required to prove he graduated from high school before starting. I thought it was very silly. Beyond that, different programs (not specifically employers) my cousin was interested in were requiring his high school to be accredited. Massage school was one of them, there were others he mentioned but this was nearly two decades ago so I don't recall specifics.
