What is WASC?
The Accrediting Commission for Schools, Western Association of Schools and Colleges (ACS WASC) is a world-renowned accrediting association. WASC is a voluntary, dual-purpose process that enables schools to demonstrate they provide high-quality learning and model continual self-improvement.
What does WASC accreditation mean for a school?
WASC accreditation indicates that a school is committed to establishing a clear mission and goals for its learners. The school is learner-oriented and continuously examines learner performance, accepting objective evaluation from a team of outside peer professionals trained by ACS WASC. The school maintains a qualified faculty within an effectively organized structure and regularly collaboratively assesses the quality of its educational programs, making plans for the future.
Why is accreditation important?
WASC Accreditation:
-
Ensures that the school community understands that the school’s purposes are being achieved through a viable educational program and that it is a trustworthy institution for student learning.
-
Validates the integrity of the school’s program and transcripts.
-
Facilitates the transfer of credits to other English-speaking schools, which is critical for college/university acceptance worldwide.
-
Fosters the ongoing improvement of the school’s programs and operations to support learner learning.
-
Provides valuable insight from fellow educators visiting the school.
