State Authorizations
The U.S. Department of Education (ED) created a set of approval and reporting requirements for online programs in educational institutions. One of the regulations was 34 C.F.R. 600.9, which is commonly referred to as State Authorization.
ED requires compliance with state regulations of any state in which 澳门二四六天天彩provides distance education for students. To facilitate this compliance with state regulations 澳门二四六天天彩has joined the National Council for State Authorization Reciprocity Agreements (NC-SARA).
