ABET accreditation in CS is usually not relevant for most employers

Yes and no. It’s true that employers rarely specify ABET accreditation when it comes to hiring; they want to maximize their flexibility.

However, those same employers may have a different attitude when it comes to a separate issue: employee tuition reimbursement. For example, Intel made news about 10 years ago, when they announced that they would only reimburse tuition for AACSB-accredited business courses and ABET-accredited engineering or CS coursework. This was widely seen as a blow to the University of Phoenix (which has neither form of accreditation).

Possibly the OP was hired without a degree, and wants to pursue a degree while continuing to work full-time, but needs ABET accreditation to qualify for tuition reimbursement under the company benefits plan.
