Accreditation Evaluation Teams

Our volunteer peer evaluation model is a hallmark of the CIS International Accreditation philosophy. We believe that gaining perspectives from fellow member schools is a vital aspect of school evaluation. A diverse team enriches the accreditation process through the sharing of knowledge and effective practices, to the benefit of not only the schools being evaluated but also the peers involved in their evaluation. Volunteering as an evaluation team member provides significant professional benefits for faculty and leadership members. Our peer evaluators consistently rate the experience as the best professional development they have had.

CIS educators can play a crucial role in upholding the highest standards in international education by joining a team of peer evaluators. Evaluators make a positive impact on our global membership community while learning and refining the skills that are used throughout an educational career.

Leaders and aspiring leaders working at CIS member schools are eligible to become a volunteer evaluator. More information is available in the CIS Community portal for schools.

Understanding and seeking the depth of what it means to be truly internationally minded, knowing the world is one with the determination to improve and learn from each other, is what I have experienced on the team visits... I hope to continue to experience this learning and professional development... as I immerse myself into school' evaluation and improvement.
