Internal Reflection - International Education

The school’s Internal Reflection represents the core of ACE Learning. Following a successful ACE Preparatory Visit, the learning community commits to a year of self-reflection, which culminates in the learning community’s completing an Internal Reflection Report.  

After the Internal Reflection Report has been submitted to NEASC, a team of trained peer reviewers will spend one week on site to conduct the External Review. The visiting team’s report includes a recommendation on whether NEASC accreditation should be granted.

A key element in each school’s reflection is how the 4 Cs support or hinder the realization of a learning community’s vision:

• Conceptual Understanding
• Commitment
• Capacity
• Competence

A learning community’s conceptual understanding of and commitment to the ACE Learning ecosystem as well as its capacity and competency for implementing change will be assessed during the External Review Visit.
