The evaluation of a foreign educational credential will:
-
Situate the credential within the framework of the education system to which it belongs, taking into account its relative place and function compared to other credentials in the same system:
- Identify the level and type of credential in the system of the country in which recognition is sought that is most comparable to the foreign credential, taking into account the purpose for which recognition is sought;
- Determine whether similarities between foreign and domestic credentials are sufficient for recognition.
- Keep track of changes in the educational systems (like changing name of university, college, credits/contact hours etc)
