LEAARC endorsement is a formal, non-governmental, peer-review process of voluntary self-evaluation. LEAARC recognizes and honors a variety of diverse educational models such as distance education, self-paced programs, programs within large and small institutions, college-based programs and those that are not-for-profit and for-profit.
