MUST High School Accreditation

y daughter is an educationist and only recently she taught me something new. Something I never knew in my twenty years of experience in the sphere of academia. She educated me on the topic of international accreditation.

She talked about online high schools and predominantly about MUST High School. Being closely involved with academia, the first question I had in my mind was that of accreditation. From experience, I know that accreditation is what makes or breaks a high school and obviously I was inquisitive.

MUST is fully accredited by the International Accreditation Organization (IAO), one of the leading bodies that offer international accreditation to online institutions.

This shook some of the basic understanding I had gathered over the years regarding accreditation.  In my time there was only national and regional accreditation. Yet, as she went on, I learnt that a new concept was emerging – that of international accreditation. This is what online high schools strive for. For them, national and regional accreditation is an obsolete idea. Why I even asked so in the first place?

If you operate on a national or regional level, only then would you need national or regional level accreditation, don’t you think? If you are global, why would you want to restrict yourself? Common sense isn’t it.

So you see, it is never too late to learn something new.
