About Peregrine Academic Services™, LLC
Peregrine Academic Services, LLC was founded in order to assist colleges and universities with the program-level assessment requirements. Several of us worked previously at higher learning institutions where we saw that the tools and methods that were being used to assess academic programs through direct measurement were limited in scope, application, and/or availability. We saw reports that included meaningless and irrelevant statistics and comparisons. These were not the data that academic professionals could readily use to address accreditation needs, make meaningful adjustments to an academic program, or evaluate learning outcomes at the program level. What was needed were tools build upon the requirements of accreditation and that is what we have built.
Our most important goal continues to be to provide customizable academic services related to accreditation needs that can be directly applied across the spectrum of higher learning: from associates through doctoral; both within the US and throughout the world.
Our Mission is to provide online assessment services and higher learning products for higher learning institutions and assist these schools with obtaining and maintaining their accreditation requirements. Our Vision is to be the academic partner of choice for all higher learning institutions, within the US and throughout the World.

Meaning Behind the Name: Peregrine
Peregrine ( pronounced PER-ə-grən ) is of Latin origin and means traveler or wanderer (Merriam-Webster). The name was popular among early European settlers of the Americas. Peregrine White was the name of the first child born to the Pilgrims in the New World and was born on the Mayflower.
The peregrine falcon is found throughout the world and is the fastest animal on the planet. Although the falcon was threatened with extinction in the 1960s, populations today are healthy, self-sustaining, and expanding in many areas.
We chose the name peregrine, and its representation with the peregrine falcon, for our company in order to symbolize shared characteristics: resiliency, world wide distribution, tenacity, and an ability to adapt to a variety of conditions.
