FAQs For Employers

1. Are you an accredited school?

Answer: Center for Learning (C4L) Academy is a private, accredited and registered provider of adult education leading to a high school diploma. You can find C4L Academy’s institution profile listed in the California Department of Education's database here.

C4L Academy is proudly accredited by Cognia, formerly AdvanEd. Cognia is the parent organization for the North Central Association Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement (NCA CASI), the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Council on Accreditation and School Improvement (SACS CASI), and the Northwest Accrediting Commission (NWAC).

Earning accreditation from Cognia means C4L Academy is globally recognized as a school that meets Cognia Standards of Quality and maintains a commitment to continuous improvement. It is the largest community of education professionals in the world. They offer accreditation and certification, assessment, professional services, and consulting to help schools drive continuous improvement.

Cognia seeks to provide solutions to schools and help better outcomes for all students. The Cognia accreditation process for C4L Academy began with an internal school review, followed by a number of surveys of our students, staff, and teaching faculty. The results of the evaluation are represented in the Index of Education Quality (IEQ™). The IEQ™ comprises three domains:

1) The impact of teaching and learning on student performance.
2) The leadership capacity to govern.
3) The use of resources and data to support and optimize learning.

The External Review Team commended C4L Academy for having “a firm foundation and strong commitment to provide the very best for its students, as well as a commitment to excellence that will be enhanced as the school continues to focus on school improvement.”


2. How can I verify a student’s diploma?

Answer: You can verify a student’s diploma if you have the last four digits of their SSN as well as their C4L Academy student ID which can be found at the top of a student’s transcripts.

Email info@c4lacademy.com with a signed release of records for the student or give us a call at (866) 216-9288.


3. How do I obtain official transcripts for a student?

Answer: If you need to obtain student transcripts, the student must order them through their C4L student dashboard, or they can put in a request for transcripts by emailing info@c4lacademy.com.
