Highlights

			Standards for Accredited and Approved Programs The new Standards for Accredited and Approved Programs, adopted by the NAACLS Board of Directors in September 2012, are posted. Please subscribe to the NAACLS News blog to learn all the details about implementation. Programs that have Self-Study Reports due in fall 2014 and accreditation/approval awards expiring October 2015 will be using these Standards.
			Program Revitalization: Strategies for Survival A task force chaired by Donna Spannaus-Martin has been charged to review and update the NAACLS Program Revitalization: Strategies for Survival document. Other task force members include Linda Ross, Debbie Wisenor, Randy Vandervander, Fred Rodriguez (board liaison), and Gwen James-Oriaikhi (staff liaison). The Program Revitalization Task force would appreciate any ideas/strategies that you might have to include in the updated document. These can be sent directly to Donna Spannaus-Martin.
			Self-Study Template NAACLS Programs undergoing the Accreditation process can complete their Self-Studies using a pdf template. The Self-Study Template can be completed using the free version of Adobe Reader. Simply download the file and follow the instructions within. Completed Self-Studies can be submitted to NAACLS via flash drive. Please note that you must save the file, not work on it online.
			Frequency of Citations by Standard The linked pdf shows citation data from 2003-2009. This should be useful to programs preparing for initial and continuing accreditation reviews.
