Accreditation Cycle

ISACS accreditation follows a seven-year cycle designed to support each school in fulfilling its mission. Once during each cycle, the school conducts a comprehensive self-study process involving all school employees and key stakeholders. The following year, the school hosts an accreditation team. The accreditation team confirms the school’s adherence to the ISACS Standards for Membership and uses the self-study report, together with on-the-ground observations and previous experience, to commend the school for its strengths and make recommendations for school improvement. Throughout the remainder of the cycle, the school implements its plans for school improvement and reports to ISACS regularly about its status.
