}}National Independent Private Schools Association (NIPSA) is an organization that accredits primary and secondary proprietary schools in the United States and internationally.[1] NIPSA was formed in 1983, in northern California, by a small group of enthusiastic educational professionals dedicated to the formation of a professional association of proprietary schools; the three co-founders were Charles Lavaroni, Dr. Ralph Gioveniello, and Dr. Pat O’Donnell.[2] In addition to accreditation, NIPSA clinically certifies therapeutic schools and programs. As a leader in the field of educational therapeutic certification, NIPSA also certifies non-profit schools and programs who are dually accredited by one of their co-accreditors. NIPSA is also a SEVIS recognized agency, so NIPSA schools may have applications from international students.{{Citation needed|date=August 2016}} NIPSA has co-accreditation agreements with the following organizations: AdvancED, WASC, MSA-CESS, Accreditation International, Accrediting Association of Seventh-Day Adventist Schools, American Montessori Society, Association of Christian Teachers and Schools, Association of Independent Schools of Florida, Association of Waldorf Schools of North America, Christian Schools of Florida, E.A.
