Accreditation Review Committee

The Accreditation Review Committee consists of fellows of the College who have expertise in various aspects of skills education and training, in addition to directing their own centers. The members of the Committee are appointed by the College and will serve a term of three years. The Committee will meet twice a year to make accreditation decisions. In addition, as needed, the Committee will evaluate the effectiveness of the overall ACS Program for the Accreditation of Education Institutes.

The purpose of the Accreditation Review Committee is to review the data and information gathered from the Education Institute surveyors in order to make a determination as to the level of compliance an institution achieved in each criterion within the three Standards. The Accreditation Review Committee will make the overall accreditation decision as to whether or not an institution that submits an application meets the criteria for achieving an accreditation status as a Level I or Level II Institute
