IQAS provides an advisory service to educational institutions by evaluating internationally educated students and issuing them an assessment certificate. This certificate provides basic information on the applicant’s education as well as specific courses on levels of achievement for identified pre-requisite courses for entrance requirements and transfer of credits.
International Education Guides
IQAS has developed the International Education Guides (IEGs) as a resource for educational institutions, employers and professional licensing bodies. These guides are country specific and help facilitate and streamline the decisions that organizations make regarding the recognition of international credentials. For more information on the IEGs or to order your copies, contact the IQAS office at 780-427-2655.
Workshops
In addition to the IEGs, IQAS provides informative full day workshops on foreign credential assessment methodology for those who work in the field. These workshops provide participants with instruction on the assessment process as well as a manual with exercises. These are two types of workshops: assessment methodology and country specific. The assessment methodology workshop provides an introduction and overview of how to evaluate foreign educational credentials. The country specific workshop provides an in depth look at the historical background, education system, and grading system.
