Accreditation by Cognia - A Legacy of Learning, a Vision for the Future

For 130 years, schools have been inviting Cognia and their legacy agencies, NCA CASI, NWAC, and SACS CASI, into their classrooms. Cognia provides expertise and actionable ideas that help schools continuously improve. Accreditation is the launchpad for school improvement. Based on rigorous research-based standards and evidence-based criteria, the process probes the whole institution—from policies to learning conditions and cultural context—to determine how well the parts work together to meet the needs of every learner. Accreditation helps education providers meet improvement goals and sustain commitments to better learner outcomes.

What can accreditation mean for students?

Students who attend a school accredited by Cognia, can rest assure that the school is committed to raising student performance and held accountable for improving student learning on a continual basis.

Accreditation means that students have: 

  • Qualified teachers who are continually working to improve their practices and teaching methods
  • Access to a rich, diverse, and sound curriculum
  • Access to a range of student activities and support services
  • Transferability of credits from school to school
  • Greater access to federal loans, scholarships, post secondary education, and military programs that require accreditation

The school credits that students earn at an NCA CASI/SACS CASI accredited school are recognized by schools, colleges, and universities globally. Through Cognia’s reciprocal agreements with sister accrediting organizations, students can continue their educational goals in the United States or around the world.
