International accreditation support for English language programs
English language programs outside the US often answer to two audiences at once: an international accreditor and a national regulator. I help programs satisfy both with one coherent set of policies, evidence, and documents, so you are not maintaining two versions of the truth.
Programs I work with
- University Intensive English, preparatory, and foundation-year programs
- Private and independent language schools seeking international accreditation
- Universities aligning US institutional accreditation with national ministry requirements
- Branch campuses of US institutions operating abroad
I am open to clients worldwide. My experience includes working with institutions and regulations in Türkiye and Iraq, including the Kurdistan Region.
Why work with me
- I served as a U.S. Department of State Virtual Educator, working with US Embassy English Language Programs and universities abroad.
- I have built policy for a university in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq that had to meet the standards of the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE) and the regulations of the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research of the Kurdistan Regional Government at the same time, including translated legal sources.
- I have taught English in Türkiye, Slovakia, Hungary, Austria, and Thailand, so I understand how programs run in different national systems.
- As a volunteer CEA peer reviewer and former Intensive English Program director, I know the CEA Standards well and how programs actually run day to day.
A typical first project
A paid readiness review, done remotely. You share your key documents, and I deliver a ranked gap report against CEA standards and your national requirements. Everything you share with me is kept strictly confidential.
