Greetings from the ACEN,
The ACEN has implemented new submission deadlines for requesting a continuing accreditation site visit, and these differ from previously communicated information. Additionally, the Site Visit Request Form (formerly known as the Information Form) is now submitted digitally to an automated third-party system, which will send you an automatic confirmation of receipt and store the file securely.
Below is the due date for the Site Visit Request Form based on when your site visit is scheduled:
