Accreditation Workshop
The accreditation process begins with attendance at an Accreditation Workshop where the Commission provides training and resources which will assist schools as they strive towards a meaningful self-evaluation and on-site evaluation experience. Schools currently accredited by ACCSC will be assigned to an Accreditation Workshop based upon their scheduled renewal date. Initial applicants may elect to attend any of ACCSC’s Accreditation Workshops to fulfill this requirement. According to the Standards of Accreditation, "the full-time, on-site director or appropriate management team representative (see Section I (A)(1)(a), Substantive Standards, Standards of Accreditation) of the school must attend an accreditation workshop prior to the submission of the application for accreditation.
The Accreditation Workshop provides an opportunity for participants gain a better understanding of the Commission’s standards and procedures, as well as to share experiences with other schools that will be undergoing renewal of accreditation.
