Valuing the Accreditation Process
Bahr, Maria
NADE Digest, v9 n2 p16 Win 2018
The value of the National Association for Developmental Education (NADE) accreditation process is far-reaching. Not only do students and programs benefit from the process, but also the entire institution. Through data collection of student performance, analysis, and resulting action plans, faculty and administrators can work cohesively towards improving both the effectiveness of the program and student success. In addition, the program accreditation process reinforces institutional assessment by implementing data-driven decisions, a process supported by institutional accrediting agencies. This article briefly presents valuing the accreditation process.
