Credential evaluation : ウィキペディア英語版
Credential evaluation

Credential evaluation is the way in which academic and professional degrees earned in one country are compared to those earned in another.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.wes.org/licensing/whatiscredential.asp )〕 Universities, colleges and employers around the world use credential evaluations to understand foreign education and to judge applicants for admission or employment.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.globaltalentbridge.org/evaluation/howitworks.asp )
Immigrants can use credential evaluations to gain recognition for study completed outside the country they are immigrating to and in doing so join the workforce as skilled immigrants.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.globaltalentbridge.org/evaluation/ )International students use credential evaluations to present their previous coursework and grades to universities anywhere for admission.
Credential Evaluation in the United States
Universities and colleges in the United States saw a marked increase in the number of international students applying for admission after World War II when many European countries were recovering from the war.The need for an accurate and fair understanding of students’ educational past emerged and became even more important as the number of international students studying in the United States jumped from 25,000 in the years after the war, according to NAFSA. There were over 866,000 international students studying in the United States in 2013 to 2014.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.iie.org/Services/Project-Atlas/United-States )
As universities face declining public financial support and the pressure to keep tuition affordable, academic institutions have relied on international students to offset the rising cost of higher education. The majority of international students in the United States are from China, India and South Korea. However, there has been a large and steady growth in the number of international students from Brazil, Vietnam, Indonesia and Nigeria.
There is no federal (national) government agency that oversees credential evaluations in the United States. There are professional associations such as the (National Association of Credential Evaluation Services ) (NACES) that create and maintain ethical standards in the field though they are not governing agencies and membership by credential evaluators is voluntary. However, credential evaluators must meet certain criteria to belong to NACES. However, credential evaluators must meet certain criteria to belong to NACES. Universities and colleges also evaluate credentials themselves.
Credential Evaluation in Canada
Educational credential assessment (ECA) also known as credential evaluation can be used for immigration, education and licensing. An ECA is necessary for immigrants seeking entry into Canada under various Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) programs, including the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FWSP) through Express Entry, which requires immigrants to have completed a minimum equivalent of a Canadian secondary school diploma.〔 The Canadian government does not assess foreign credentials. Instead as of April 2013, the CIC has designated five (credential evaluation agencies ) to provide assessments for those immigrating to Canada. These designated agencies are members of the Alliance of Credential Evaluation Services of Canada.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://canalliance.org/index.en.stm )
Most Canadian licensing boards or professional licensing bodies require academic credential evaluations from internationally-educated professionals. The evaluations are assessed in-house or by Alliance members.
Credential Evaluation in Europe
The Convention on the Recognition of the Qualifications Concerning Higher Education in the European Region, commonly called the Lisbon Recognition Convention, is the main legal agreement which governs the recognition of qualifications between the member states of the Council of Europe, excluding Greece and Monaco. The European Network of Information Centres and the National Academic Recognition Information Centres (known as ENIC-NARIC) can evaluate credentials and issue a “statement of comparability” for a university degree earned in one member country for use in another. The convention states that degree holders must have access to “adequate assessments” of their credentials and degrees must be recognized among member countries unless there are proven “substantial differences” between the degrees awarded in that country and the degree being assessed.〔
Credential Evaluation in Australia
The Australian government evaluates foreign credentials depending on the reason for the evaluation. For example, if an evaluation is needed only for immigration purposes the Department of Immigration and Border Protection will assess qualifications.〔 There are designated assessing authorities for specific professions, such as the Australian Institute For Teaching and School Leadership which assesses credentials for school teacher occupations. For most other credential assessments, Overseas Qualifications Units were established in most Australian states and territories to evaluate foreign credentials.〔 The Department of Education and Training can also assess credentials for foreign-born residents of New South Wales and credentials for occupations that do not require registration, licensing, or professional membership.
Credential Evaluation in the Middle East
The Convention on the Recognition of Studies, Diplomas and Degrees in Higher Education in the Arab States was held in 1978 to “adopt terminology and evaluation criteria as similar as possible… in order to simplify the application of a system which will ensure the comparability of credits, subjects of study and diplomas” and to encourage student mobility across borders. Eighteen states signed the convention including Jordan, Morocco, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia.〔
Types of Credential Evaluations
Generally the types of credential evaluations vary depending on the country and purpose of the evaluation. The ENIC-NARIC offers full equivalency or comparable reports.〔 In the United States and Canada credential evaluations range from detailed course-by-course analysis to document-by-document analysis depending on the admissions requirements of a particular school or the requirements for employment and immigration. While academic and professional institutions may use credential evaluations to assess candidates’ qualifications, the institution decides whether a candidates credentials meet their requirements for admission.
