Chuntian Academy International

Note: Nearly all Martial Art Schools are not governmentally accredited, and most Martial Arts Associations, Organizations and Federations (especially in America) are not as well. Japan and China and a very few other places, yes or some what.

We at C.A.I. teach Martial arts, Humanities, Languages and more. We want to take it to the next level, An Institutional truly diverse and open-minded in International Humanities ( Language, Religion, Culture, Travel, Music, Customs, Martial Arts, Art, Government, People, Family, Community, History and Traditions). College educated and Martial Art Experts bringing together a true melting pot of inter cultural understanding and communication. (Ignorance breeds fear, fear breeds hatred and hatred breeds WAR).

C.A.I. is working toward a governmental accepted accreditation, as well as a international or partly U.N. accepted accreditation.

But, at this point in time in a effort to maintain the highest standards of training, programs and organization. We have an overseeing board of advisers to assure legitimate quality of knowledge and training qualifications of teachers and students.

To be truly accredited, in most countries, government has agencies control accreditation. In America however, accreditation is done through several Government approved Organizations, keyword "approved", some are not recognized by the United States Department of Education (D.O.E.), and those that are non-religious that are not recognized through the D.O.E. should be avoided, especially if it is medical or health based.
More and more states are making it illegal, If not a religious based degree, avoid it, life experience degree, avoid it, legal some places through loop holes, but will bite you later. If you don't avoid it, it is like having a time bomb in your C.V. or Resume.

However, Some federally recognized religious Institutions and organizations are sometimes exempt because of separation of church and state and the freedom of religion in America. (In many cases because of this, a legally recognized church or religious organization may legitimately recognize accreditation, such as a Masters or even a Doctorate or Ph.D in religion or divinity. However legal, but only recognized in the religious community. (So it you have a Ph.D in Religion or Honorary Degree, don't expect it to be the same as any Ph.d and try to get a job as a professor. Legal only in the specific religious community/ U.S.A./ Japan and a few other places only, in the U.K. you must continue the process of higher learning post graduate, but too has some historical exceptions dealing exclusively with the Church ).

At Chuntian Academy, we are aware and strongly dislike the fact that some schools offer Black belt fast tract programs, certificates, Children Black belts as well Diploma and even Accreditation mills. Degrees of various types other than the fore mentioned are available on the internet for a "fee" with little training or short training. REAL Training and experience is 9/10th of education, not price and fancy certificates, remember that. ( don't fool yourself).

Importantly, we at Chuntian Academy are not a Black Belt or Certification Mill. We However are also not a College that is accredited, but a very high level Martial Art School with 3 decades of experience in internationally diverse martial techniques,philosophies, and diverse profound contributing members, from Ex-cons to Victims to Drop outs to Doctors, Police, Corrections, Military, Medical Doctors, Ministers, Teachers, Housewives, poor, black, brown, white , Jewish, Christian, Muslim, able, disabled, rich as well as poor.
Also we have an International Community Club and Humanities based educational organization, with the intention to provide the best services, knowledge, research and education.

Our Board members/Standards advisers do or did have governmentally national and or international accreditation.
