I'm not sure if this is the sort of thing you're asking about, and I didn't do this myself but there is a thing called the "International Baccalaureate", it's a sort of education plan that regardless of where you are, if you follow it you would be prepared for higher education/work basically anywhere in the world (so if you were in Costa Rica, like I am, and got it, when you are 18, you could go to the US, Canada, the UK, or the EU for university, with minimal or no classes to "catch up")

Interesting! From their website it looks like you must become a "school" (about $4000 USD) and that gives you access to the material? I guess theoretically you can be a school of one for teaching a single child.
You can also work with specific institutions that will allow your kid to take the IB tests if you’re in a jurisdiction that doesn’t require you to legally be a school if you’re home-educating (as you’ve said, Utah does not).
