WASC Accreditation · CIS Accreditation · Cambridge Accreditation
International school accreditation consulting — WASC, CIS & Cambridge. Get it right the first time.
Dr. Allen has personally guided international schools through initial accreditation with WASC, CIS, and Cambridge. Most schools navigate their first international school accreditation without expert guidance — and either fail the initial visiting committee or spend years correcting foundational documentation errors that could have been avoided.
The two-phase retainer reflects the genuine difference in work intensity across the accreditation timeline. Both phases are contracted separately, with clear milestones.
Foundation Building
Intensive — builds everything
฿80,000 / month
- ✦Institutional gap analysis against accreditation standards

- ✦Documentation frameworks
- ✦Visiting committee readiness
Ongoing Advisory
Through the visit cycle & re-accreditation
฿45,000 / month
- ✦Ongoing standards alignment
- ✦Response documentation
- ✦Annual report guidance
- ✦Continuity into re-accreditation
Each phase contracted separately, with clear milestones at every stage.
The Search Retainer — Faculty & Leadership Recruitment
The Problem
The hiring problem every international school faces.
International schools across Asia consistently hire the wrong people — not because they lack a process, but because the person running the process lacks the institutional knowledge to evaluate candidates the way a Head of School would.
฿500,000 – ฿1,500,000+
True cost of one bad senior hire
That figure factors in repeat recruitment, notice periods, and the cultural damage to your team. It keeps happening because international school hiring is owned by the wrong person.
The Solution
An active Head of School evaluating every candidate.
฿55,000 / month
- ✦Dr. Allen screens CVs, shortlists, and conducts first-round interviews
- ✦Evaluating pedagogical fit, character, motivation & cultural alignment
- ✦Up to 3 hires per active month (฿12,000 per hire above the cap)
- ✦In quiet months: a 60-minute HR strategy session on retention, performance, or culture
Annual investment: ฿660,000
Less than the cost of one bad hire.
✦ Proprietary Institutional Frameworks
The Education 2.0 Codex — five proprietary frameworks for international school culture transformation, licensed worldwide.
A suite of five proprietary institutional frameworks developed by Dr. Allen A. Dubolino, Ph.D. Each addresses a domain every international school must manage — hiring, staff development, student discipline, home-school partnership, and future-skills assessment — reimagined from the ground up for the intelligence age.
The Signal Framework
International School Hiring
A five-stage hiring system that detects the Four Signals — Discipline, Core Driver, Passion, Nuance — and filters for Five Disqualifying Patterns. Replaces the CV-interview pipeline with a process designed to find who a candidate truly is.
The Resonance Framework
Staff Professional Development
A staff development and mentorship system for the algorithmic age. Four structural guarantees: No Scores. No Rankings. No Contract Link. No Surprises. Three mentorship cycles per year, annual holistic reflection, monthly peer learning.
The Compass Framework
Restorative Student Discipline
A discipline system built on a Dual-Track Model: a Consequence Track protects the community while a Compass Track develops the student — run simultaneously for every incident. Age-differentiated from Early Years through Grade 12.
The Current Framework
Home-School Partnership
A home-school partnership system built on the economics of relational capital — every interaction is either a deposit or a withdrawal. Three currents: the Learning Current, the Embodied Current, and the Daily Current.
The VRS³ Framework
Future Skills Assessment
A future-readiness assessment framework measuring Value Creation, Resilience, and Sovereignty — what academic grades cannot see. Six-level tier system, student-owned portfolios from Grade 6, geometric mean composite scoring.
The Full Codex
All five frameworks
- ✦Phased implementation roadmap
- ✦Priority scheduling for all Dr. Allen training sessions
- ✦Dedicated annual implementation review
- ✦Founding licensees acknowledged in Dr. Allen's forthcoming book on the Education 2.0 Codex
