Homeschooling Online Accreditation concerns
Accreditation seems to be a growing concern for many home school groups. While public high schools throughout all 50 states are beginning to require accreditation in order to accept incoming credits, the absence of accreditation may greatly hinder any home schoolers from attending colleges or universities.
Many homeschool families are experiencing a growing concern about accreditation. Credits earned must be able to transfer to a private or public high school, and of course, to any college a student has interest in. Every school has the administrative right to accept or reject credits from other schools - both private and public. To circumvent such risk, it is recommended that homeschool families enroll in an Accredited School whose accreditation agency is one of the 6 regional agencies recognized by the United States Department of Education.
Students entering into colleges may have concern if the college discovers the course content was strictly based in religious content. To avoid this, it is recommended that students take College Preparatory classes that are Christian Friendly, not Christian based. Students need to prepare to enter the university since their ninth grade year. All students need to know the leap from high school to university is not an easy one for any student. Those with high SAT scores, or who have prepared years in advance with community college classes during their high school years, make the transition more easily.

Although federal law and state laws allow parents to homeschool (hslda.org/hs/default.asp ), many colleges and universities do not recognize home-based transcripts or a transcript from an umbrella school that is not regionally accredited. Most colleges require high school courses to follow a specific scope and sequence requirement as well as being accredited. By using Christian Educators Academy, you will guarantee that your child's transcript is accredited through a highly regarded regional agency. Northwest Association of Accredited Schools (NAAS), is one of the six regional accreditation agencies recognized by the U.S. Department of Education (USDE), and your child's transcript will be accepted by any college or university in the country.

One of the greatest advantages of homeschooling online is that lessons can be completed anytime, anywhere, 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, allowing tremendous flexibility around personal schedules. Another advantage of online homeschool is that students have a full 365-day time frame to complete all courses. If they finish all 36 week courses early, they can take additional classes at no extra charge.
