Since 2001, after unintentionally entering the field, education has become a passion. Not in teaching, but in behind the scenes of education...the over-regulated, often misinterpreted, necessary part of education. It is with this passion and desire to see quality small to mid-size schools succeed and provide various educational options that I approach the unique services EduCred offers. I have twelve years of secondary and higher education experience, accreditation, and compliance knowledge. In taking a non-traditional route to education both personally and professionally, I realized the importance of various educational options for students in all phases of their life. The most important was to ensure these educational institutions deliver on the programs and culture they publicly present. After completing my law degree and serving as an accreditation evaluator for several small and large colleges, universities, and training organizations, I observed the struggles schools face to maintain high standards on a daily basis in the face of constant changes in regulation. Although regulation within education will never go away, through carefully implemented student-focused procedures and strategies the regulatory burden on schools can be eased allowing for continued focus on student success.
