Accreditation
In June 2007, the Ohio Virtual Academy was awarded accreditation by the Commission on International and Trans-Regional Accreditation (CITA) and the North Central Association Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement (NCA CASI).
CITA
CITA awards accreditation to eligible education providers that meet its standards and requirements. The CITA accreditation process validates the school’s quality through onsite
reviews conducted by trained professional evaluators. Accreditation also validates diploma eligibility and facilitates the transfer of credit to universities and other schools worldwide.
CITA certification recognized that the “Ohio Virtual Academy has demonstrated to the international academic community that it effectively advances the quality of the educational experiences it provides for its students and is in compliance with the standards of the Commission.”
NCA CASI
To earn accreditation from North Central Association Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement, a school must demonstrate high standards, be evaluated by a team of professionals from outside the school, and implement a continuous school improvement plan focused on increasing student performance. NAS CASI accreditation provides the Ohio Virtual Academy an external mark of quality and a measurement of progress focused on raising student academic achievement.
