About ECE
Our primary business is preparing foreign education credential evaluation reports. A credential evaluation compares academic and professional degrees earned in one country to academic and professional degrees earned in another. Colleges, universities, employers, licensing boards, and governments use these academic assessments to evaluate foreign education as part of the admission, hiring, or licensure process.
We also provide support and training to educational institutions and other businesses that perform their own credential evaluation.
To promote the betterment of individuals’ lives and society by ensuring that educational qualifications are fairly and accurately recognized across borders.
