The National Council for State Authorization Reciprocity Agreements (NC-SARA) is a significant non-profit organization aimed at facilitating access to distance education and ensuring the quality and regulatory consistency of such programs across the United States. Established in 2013 by key stakeholders in higher education, including state regulators, education leaders, accrediting bodies, and the U.S. Department of Education, NC-SARA works under the framework of the State Authorization Reciprocity Agreements (SARA) to simplify the regulation of online education.
Through collaboration with four regional compacts, NC-SARA supports states, educational institutions, policymakers, and students by promoting understanding and participation in SARA, which has seen widespread adoption. Over 2,200 institutions across 49 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands are participants, attesting to the program's success and the value it offers.

The importance of NC-SARA lies in its contributions to enhancing the quality of distance education, facilitating student access to such programs regardless of state boundaries, reducing administrative costs and complexities for states and educational institutions, fostering interstate coordination on educational opportunities, providing oversight for distance education, and sharing critical data on out-of-state learning experiences.
