Survey of Religious Education

My colleagues Stephanie Cloninger (AACRAO), Matthew Cwiklinski (Scholaro, Inc.), Lindsey Gullicksrud (Educational Credential Evaluators, Inc./ECE), and I recently prepared and delivered a pre-conference workshop at the 2024 TAICEP Annual Conference in Quebec City entitled “Survey of Religious Education”. This four-hour workshop covered  pontifical, madrasah, and yeshiva education in depth, with a focus on secondary and post-secondary academic credentials. We covered the following:

  • Samples of religious education documents that credential evaluators might see
  • How to find the appropriate recognition or confirm that there is no legal recognition, including a discussion about approved versus recognized (i.e., allowed to operate versus allowed to operate AND getting a higher secondary certificate which allows access to tertiary education)
  • How to find legislation governing religious education

A copy of our slide deck and the reference guide we created to accompany the workshop are both available here:

La Educación en México: Una Breve Guía Para Evaluadores de Credenciales (Education in Mexico-A Brief Guide for Credential Evaluators)

My colleagues Ena Chaisson from MacEwan University and Barbara Glave from SDR Education Consultants and I will present a session at the TAICEP 2021 Annual Conference entitled “La Educación en México: Una Breve Guía Para Evaluadores de Credenciales (Education in Mexico-A Brief Guide for Credential Evaluators)”. Attached are our PowerPoint slide deck and a reference guide we created to accompany the presentation. We hope that this reference guide helps you as you evaluate Mexican credentials! Please contact Ena, Barbara or me if we can provide any additional information or assistance.
