North Central Association Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement : ウィキペディア英語版
North Central Association of Colleges and Schools

The North Central Association of Colleges and Schools (NCA), also known as the North Central Association, is a membership organization, consisting of colleges, universities, and schools in 19 U.S. states, that is engaged in educational accreditation. It is one of six regional accreditation bodies in the United States, and its Higher Learning Commission is recognized by the United States Department of Education and the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) as a regional accreditor for higher education institutions.〔(Recognized Accrediting Organizations ), Council for Higher Education Accreditation, accessed October 8, 2010〕
The NCA accredits over 10,000 public and private educational institutions in its service area, including more than 1,000 higher education institutions.〔Judith S. Eaton, (Accreditation and Recognition in the United States ), CHEA, 2008.〕 The service area includes the states of Arkansas, Arizona, Colorado, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, North Dakota, Nebraska, New Mexico, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Dakota, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Wyoming, as well as the Navajo Nation.〔(Directory of HLC Institutions ), Higher Learning Commission website, accessed October 8, 2010〕〔(NCA at a Glance ), Illinois State Office of the North Central Association Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement (NCA CASI), accessed October 8, 2010〕
The accreditation work of the North Central Association is undertaken by two independent corporations that are components of the association.〔〔(About the Higher Learning Commission ), Higher Learning Commission website, accessed October 8, 2010〕 The Higher Learning Commission (HLC) oversees higher education accreditation, providing institution-level accreditation of degree-granting colleges and universities.〔 The Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement (NCA CASI) accredits a wide variety of educational institutions, ranging from early childhood, through elementary, middle, and secondary schools to adult-vocational, college preparatory, and non-degree granting post-secondary institutions. In July 2006, NCA CASI combined with the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) Council on Accreditation and School Improvement to form AdvancED; NCA CASI and SACS CASI now operate as divisions of AdvancED and as components of their respective regional associations.〔(AdvancED website ), accessed October 8, 2010〕〔(http://www.nca.uillinois.edu/Documents/Fall2006.pdf, Fall 2006 Newsletter ), Illinois State Office of the North Central Association Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement (NCA CASI), accessed October 8, 2010〕
The North Central Association was organized in 1895 at a meeting of 36 administrators of schools, colleges, and universities located in seven midwestern states. The association's original objective was "the establishment of close relations between the colleges and secondary schools."〔(History of the North Central Association )〕 Better articulation between the two levels of education was a particular focus. In pursuit of that objective, the association undertook a thorough examination of education quality at both the secondary and college level. That examination process led to the establishment of an accreditation process for secondary schools. Accreditation of colleges and universities followed later.〔 The North Central carried out the functions of post-secondary accreditation and accreditation of pre-college education through a unified organization until 2000, when its Commission on Schools (now NAC CASI) and its Commission on Institutions of Higher Education (now the Higher Learning Commission) were formed as independent corporations that began independent operation on January 1, 2001.〔(SEPARATE INCORPORATION OF THE COMMISSIONS OF THE NORTH CENTRAL ASSOCIATION ), NCA Higher Learning Commission website; archived October 15, 2001 and (Initiating the New Corporation: The Higher Learning Commission ), NCA ''Exchanges'' Newsletter, November 2000; archived June 12, 2004〕
The association is organized as nonprofit corporation, chartered in Illinois and governed by a board of directors.〔(Bylaws of the North Central Association ), adopted August 2000; accessed October 8, 2010〕 The Higher Learning Commission is based in Chicago,〔(About the Higher Learning Commission ), Higher Learning Commission website, accessed October 8, 2010〕 while the CASI/AdvancED maintains offices in each of the states it serves.〔 (U.S. Locations ), AdvancED website, accessed October 8, 2010〕
==NCA CASI==
NCA CASI accredits a range of schools from Pre-kindergarten through postsecondary, including: early childhood, elementary, middle, secondary, adult/vocational, college preparatory, special purpose, unit (K–12), and non-degree granting post-secondary schools. In 2006, AdvancED was established with the unification of NCA CASI, SACS CASI, and NSSE creating the world's largest education community. Today, NCA CASI acts as an accreditation division of AdvancED.
