Accreditation
Accreditation provides reciprocity of credits, courses, and grade level placements between schools and universities around the world and validation of the equivalency of diplomas and certificates to other accredited schools and universities. Accreditation ensures a consistent level of quality in a network of participating schools that is valued by the public and by colleges and universities. In addition, students in accredited schools become part of a worldwide network of quality institutions focused on student performance.
Commission on International and Trans-Regional Accreditation (CITA)
K¹² is a CITA-accredited corporation meeting the highest standards of educational management. The Commission on International and Trans-Regional Accreditation (CITA) is a global leader in accreditation, dedicated to advancing the quality of education through accreditation. Comprised of the premier American educational accrediting agencies, CITA accredits more than 30,000 public and private educational institutions in 100 countries, touching over 17 million students.
As noted by the Commission on International and Trans-Regional Accreditation (CITA) , accreditation is a voluntary commitment on the part of a school or group of schools to achieve high standards, engage in a common protocol (a systematic process of school improvement), and to participate in a peer review of a school. The hallmark of accreditation is that a school is as it represents itself, that it is trustworthy and that is protects the public trust by reaching high standards and acting in a trustworthy manner.
Additionally, many K¹² schools are accredited by a wide variety of respected accreditation bodies including:
- Northwest Association of Accredited Schools
- Western Association of Schools and Colleges
- NCA Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement
