National Association of Credential Evaluation Services

The National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES) is a professional organization that sets standards for companies evaluating foreign educational credentials. When someone from another country seeks to study or work in the U.S., their educational credentials often need to be assessed to determine their U.S. equivalency. NACES members are recognized for providing reliable and expert evaluations, translating international degrees and transcripts into U.S. standards. This helps educational institutions, employers, and licensing boards understand the foreign credentials accurately and fairly. Essentially, NACES ensures that foreign education is properly understood and recognized in the U.S. context.
