Call for Public Comments

Every five years, ACEN revises its accreditation Standards and Criteria. The goal is to ensure that the Standards and Criteria continue to serve as valid and reliable indicators of educational quality across ACEN-accredited programs worldwide, while remaining relevant to the educational needs of students.

In accordance with ACEN Policy #23, ACEN ensures the circulation of proposed revisions to the Standards and Criteria. Interested parties have an opportunity to comment on substantive revisions prior to implementation.

Please review the Proposed 2028 Standards and Criteria with Rationale and provide your comments.
