Commission Members - International Schools
The NEASC Commission on International Education is a 16-member panel of professional educators and one public member selected to represent our diverse membership. Commission members serve for three-year terms (renewable once).
Using the established Standards and Principles for international schools, Commission members meet three times a year to review Visiting Team Reports for continued and initial accreditation, along with other reports from school accreditation visits around the world. The Commission members also assist NEASC in discussing topics of relevance to current and future member schools.
NEASC is made up of three Commissions which work in close partnership to ensure quality education for all students in public, independent, and international schools, districts, and centers around the world. Meet the full NEASC Team.
