Accreditation Evaluation Teams
CIS educators play a crucial role in upholding the highest standards in international education by joining a team of peer evaluators.
Our 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. Evaluators make a positive impact on our global membership community while learning and refining skills to use throughout their educational career.
Volunteering as an evaluation team member provides significant professional benefits for educators and leaders. Our peer evaluators consistently rate the experience as the best professional development they have had.
The requirements for becoming a CIS Accreditation Evaluator are:
- Affiliation with a CIS Member or CIS Accredited School
- A university or college degree equivalent to a Bachelor’s degree
- A teaching qualification/license or an appropriate educational qualification in an area of expertise e.g. counselling/library sciences
