Accreditation and Standards

Accreditation

The School of Education is accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE) and the Indiana Department of Education Division of Professional Standards through 2019.

The Counseling and Human Services programs in School Counseling and Clinical Mental Health Counseling are accredited by the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP).

Additionally, many programs in the School of Education have been nationally recognized by Specialized Professional Associations (SPA). SPAs are national organizations of teachers, professional education faculty, and/or other school professionals.


Standards

Programs in the School of Education are aligned with a variety of national and state standards. Candidates must demonstrate that they have the knowledge, skills, and dispositions associated with appropriate standards related to their major.


Monitoring of Candidate Progress toward Meeting Standards at Critical Checkpoints

In addition to reviewing grades and cumulative grade point averages, candidate progress is monitored carefully at three critical checkpoints. At these checkpoints candidates are required to submit designated artifacts, aligned with state and national standards in Taskstream. These artifacts are reviewed by faculty to determine if the candidate is meeting the standards or making progress toward meeting the standards. If the artifact does not meet the standards, the candidate is contacted and a remedial plan is developed. If after participation in the remedial plan, the candidate’s artifacts still do not provide evidence of meeting standards or making progress toward meeting standards, the candidate will be counseled about additional options.

Additional information about required artifacts is given to candidates in classes taken at the three critical checkpoints.
