Now offering credential assessments for those who wish to study in Canada! Educational Credential Evaluators, Inc. [ECE] is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit housed in the premier office community of Schlitz Park. Founded in 1980, ECE is an organization with an international scope that assesses foreign educational credentials of individuals for the purposes of studying or working in the U.S. and studying in Canada. ECE’s mission is “to promote the betterment of individuals’ lives and society by ensuring that educational qualifications are fairly and accurately recognized across borders.” In the words of our founder, James S. Frey, ECE exists so that “a person who was trained in another country as a doctor doesn’t end up driving a taxi in the U.S., and a taxi driver does not work as a doctor.” ECE reports give individuals from other countries the credit that they deserve for education completed in their home countries and give higher education institutions, employers, and licensing boards confidence that foreign documents have been thoroughly and expertly assessed as they make decisions on admissions, hiring, and licensure. We are the key holders for individuals for their future endeavors. We are the gatekeepers for society to ensure that the educational documentation submitted to us is authentic and official. ECE also provides training and support to the international education community and serves in leadership roles of trade organizations. As a founding member of NACES (National Association of Credential Evaluation Services) and an early supporter of TAICEP (The Association for International Credential Evaluation Professionals), ECE is a respected leader in the industry and highly regarded for its quality, thoroughness, expertise, and customer service. And in an effort to further develop its philanthropic mission, ECE®Aid was created to raise money to provide educational credential reports for those most in need, such as refugees.
