Committees at Work
Accreditation Appeal Committee
The Accreditation Appeal Committee hears appeal applications from teacher education providers whose programs have been denied accreditation or awarded accreditation with conditions.
The appeal process ensures pre-service programs and in-service courses are accredited fairly by allowing those who appeal to present new information and request to have the decision reviewed.
In 2015, new council members were appointed to the committee. At its October 16, 2015, orientation meeting, the committee members participated in a training session on the committee’s mandate and processes, the legislative framework, the principles for accreditation, the legislative framework and decision writing.
There were no appeals received by the committee in 2015.
