Accreditation Commission

The Accreditation Commission is the Association’s governing body for the IACLEA Accreditation Program.  As such, it is empowered by the Board to develop, revise and interpret accreditation standards and procedures.  It also holds the authority to grant or deny accreditation to agencies, based upon their compliance with applicable standards.

The Commission consists of twelve voluntary members, nine of which are IACLEA members appointed by the President and confirmed by the Board.  Particular care is taken to ensure that the Commission membership is representative of the diversity of the Association.  To the extent possible, efforts are made to include representatives of both two- and four-year institutions; sworn and non-sworn agencies; public and private institutions; and the six geographic regions within the United States, as well as Canada.  Additional members are drawn from allied associations, including a business officer, appointed by the National Association of College and University Business Officers; a student affairs officer, appointed by the National Association of Student Personnel Administrators; and a college president, appointed by the American Council on Education or from one of the other three college presidents' associations.
