Our Mission & Goals
The National Association of Accreditation for Quality Education (NAAQE) is a professional organization, non-profit organization with a religious foundation committed to charitable contributions to underserved communities with limited educational resources and combatting literacy. By doing this, our goal is to bridge the gap between poverty and access to education that allows a sense of well-being and builds a sense of self-worth. We advocate for those students living in underserved communities and proclaim quality education as a human right. NAAQE is an organization that receives significant public support and supports public charities that align with NAAQE's Mission and Goals. Our primary goal is the propagation of religion through education, training and professional development.
NAAQE is legally approved as a 501 (c) (3) organization by the United States Internal Revenue Service.
The mission of NAAQE is to ensure quality education as academia that empowers individuals to gain individualized experiences that enhance one’s ability to live a life of equality, and sustained knowledge, inspire personal purpose, and further a faith-based and spiritual foundation. The mission can be accomplished by providing accreditation to schools that are often prohibited from obtaining accreditation due to financial limitations or resources and providing training to our certified members who wish to join our goal to propagate religion, adhere to the principles of NAAQE in the workplace and further the mission of NAAQE.
Our Promise and Commitment
NAAQE engages in activities that advance its charitable, religious, and education mission and goals. Revenue received and property of the organization are permanently dedicated to those activities outlined. NAAQE and its employees are committed to only participating in activities that further the organization’s purpose.
How are Mission and Goals align with Accreditation
By allowing the opportunity for smaller schools, religious schools, or private training centers that are non-profit, the opportunity for accreditation, we open the doors for many more students to gain access to quality education, furthering the mission and goals of NAAQE. We work with our affiliate schools and organizations by providing an annual scholarship to a student who meets the admissions criteria but has a barrier due to financial difficulties.
As a nonprofit, tax-exempt organization governed by a Board of Directors. We are dedicated to the cause of promoting both educational and spiritual journeys. Smaller schools and colleges often cannot obtain accreditation due to the financial commitment many accreditation associations require. Our goal is to:
-
Align NAAQE standards and characteristics with the scholarship found in faith-based educational institutions and private non-profit training institutes that provide services to the Christian Community that are exclusively religious, spiritual, or ecclesiastical in nature
-
Award accreditation to deserving schools that meet the standards and characteristics of accreditation and who are committed to the empowerment of students in communities with limited educational resources
-
Continuous Quality Improvement to monitor and audit compliance with set standards and characteristics as a non-profit organization while being committed to engaging in activities that further the mission and goals of NAAQE.
-
Provide an avenue for accreditation that is affordable and reputable in both secular and non-secular education communities to combat literacy, and empower education that will address poverty and homelessness.
-
Provide training to our certified members who wish to join our goal to propagate religion, adhere to the principles of NAAQE in the workplace and further the mission of NAAQE.
NAAQE Scholarship
