Purpose of Accreditation document | The Purpose Task Force was mandated to either validate the current purpose of accreditation or establish a revised purpose. The purpose is intended to be a foundational statement about why accreditation exists, what it must achieve, and for whom. This document will also contribute to determining the path forward for accreditation. |
|
Academic Requirement document | The Academic Requirement Task Force was mandated to investigate the establishment of an academic requirement for licensure that applies to all applicants. This document provides a comprehensive overview of the draft concepts at their current stage of development and its contents represent work in progress. This document will also contribute to determining the path forward for accreditation. |
