AFFILIATED CONSULTANTS

Affiliated Consultants

ACISC affiliated consultants are education professionals and organizations that participate in the ACISC consultant and supporting-organization network. They may provide professional guidance and services to schools, students, families, educators, and educational organizations in areas related to international education.

Supporting Educational Institutions

Affiliated consultants may support schools, colleges, and other educational organizations with professional services relevant to their individual needs. These services may include educational planning, institutional development, international education guidance, professional development, or other areas within the consultant’s stated expertise.

Supporting Students and Families

Some affiliated consultants may provide independent educational or university counselling services to students and families. Such services may include guidance on higher education options, academic planning, application preparation, or navigating international education opportunities.

Students and families should evaluate each consultant’s qualifications, experience, services, fees, and terms of engagement before using their services.

Affiliation Is Not Accreditation

Affiliation with ACISC is distinct from institutional accreditation. An affiliated consultant is not an accredited school or higher education institution by virtue of being affiliated with ACISC.

Likewise, affiliation does not mean that ACISC guarantees, endorses, or certifies every service, recommendation, representation, or outcome provided by an individual consultant or organization.

Professional Responsibility

ACISC expects affiliated consultants to conduct their professional activities responsibly, ethically, and transparently. Consultants should provide accurate information about their qualifications and services and should avoid making representations about ACISC accreditation, recognition, admission, licensing, or regulatory status that cannot be substantiated.

For Consultants and Supporting Organizations

Professionals and organizations interested in working within the ACISC network can learn more about the applicable membership, eligibility, standards, and professional expectations before applying.

Important Notice

ACISC affiliation does not replace governmental authorization, professional licensing, regulatory approval, or other legal requirements. Consultants and organizations remain responsible for complying with all applicable laws, regulations, professional requirements, and contractual obligations in the jurisdictions in which they operate.

Importance of Accreditation

One of the first steps any prospective student should take before enrolling in a college or university, is to verify whether or not the school is accredited by a recognized accrediting agency. ACISC™ is a national accrediting agency recognized by the United States Department of Education.
