Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States is rapidly transforming into one of the most racially and ethnically diverse nations in the world. Groups commonly referred to as minorities-including Asian Americans, Pacific Islanders, African Americans, Hispanics, American Indians, and Alaska Natives-are the fastest growing segments of the population and emerging as the nation's majority. Despite the rapid growth of racial and ethnic minority groups, their representation among the nation's health professionals has grown only modestly in the past 25 years. This alarming disparity has prompted the recent creation of initiatives to increase diversity in health professions. In the Nation's Compelling Interest considers the benefits of greater racial and ethnic diversity, and identifies institutional and policy-level mechanisms to garner broad support among health professions leaders, community members, and other key stakeholders to implement these strategies. Assessing the potential benefits of greater racial and ethnic diversity among health professionals will improve the access to and quality of healthcare for all Americans.

Book excerpt: The Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools (ACICS or "Council") supports the concept that periodic evaluation entered into voluntarily by institutions and their peers enhances the quality of the educational process and demonstrates that self-regulation of a profession is superior to outside regulation. To help institutions and peer evaluators meet their responsibilities in conducting the process, ACICS developed and periodically has revised a set of policies, procedures, and standards governing the activity. Collectively, they comprise the "Accreditation Criteria" which, when complied with by institutions, results in the awarding of accreditation. This document incorporates all changes agreed to by the institutions since the last published edition, as well as organizational modifications. It provides an overview of the Council and presents its eligibility requirements applicable to all institutions and for various degree programs. A glossary of definitions is provided. The following are appended: (1) A-ACICS Bylaws; (2) Procedures and Guidelines for Unannounced Visits; (3) Guidelines for Institutional Publications; (4) Standards of Satisfactory Progress; (5) Guidelines for Institutional Grant Programs; (6) Guidelines for English as a Second Language Programs; (7) Guidelines on Disclosure and Notification; (8) Principles and Guidelines for Distance Education; and (9) Principles and Guidelines for International Partnership Agreements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools (ACICS) supports the concept that periodic evaluation entered into voluntarily by institutions and their peers enhances the quality of the educational process and demonstrates that self regulation of a profession is superior to outside regulation. The federal government, for purposes of distributing institutional and student financial funds, lists ACICS as an accrediting body on which it relies in determining the quality of education and training offered at institutions that ACICS accredits. This publication outlines the procedures and standards by which institutions seeking initial and new grants of accreditation are measured. Three sections include General Policies (An Overview of the Council; Eligibility Criteria; and Classification of Campuses); General Procedures (Gaining and maintaining Accreditation; Institutional Changes; and Council Actions); and Evaluation Standards (General Standards Applicable to All Institutions; Standards For Nondegree Programs; Standards For Occupational Associate's Degree Programs; Standards for Academic Associate's Degree Programs; Standards for Bachelor's Degree Programs; Standards for Master's Degree Programs; and Standards for Doctorate Degree Programs.) Nine appendixes include: (1) Bylaws; (2) Procedures and Guidelines for Unannounced Visits; (3) Guidelines for Institutional Publications; (4) Standards of Satisfactory Progress; (5) Guidelines for Institutional Grant Programs; (6) Guidelines for English as a Second Language Programs; (7) Guidelines on Disclosure and Notification; (8) Principles and Guidelines for Nontraditional Education; and (9) Principles and Guidelines for International Partnership Agreements. A glossary and index are included. [This document was published by Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools (ACICS).].

This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Accreditation of early childhood programs helps teachers and administrators evaluate and improve their practice, helps parents make informed decisions, and helps children receive quality programming. This manual explains the policies and procedures for accreditation of early childhood programs through the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). Following a list of relevant definitions, Part 1 of the manual presents the purpose and goals of NAEYC's accreditation system, eligibility requirements, applications to multisite organizations and to agency and corporate child care systems; and describes the accreditation process of self-study, validation, and the commission decision. Part 2 presents the criteria--with interpretations--for high-quality early childhood programs, including history and development of the criteria, interrelationships among criteria, and how decisions are made. Criteria are presented in the following areas: (1) interactions among teachers and children; (2) curriculum; (3) relationships among teachers and families; (4) staff qualifications and professional development; (5) administration; (6) staffing; (7) physical environment; (8) health and safety; (9) nutrition and food service; and (10) evaluation. The manual's five appendices provide examples of developmentally appropriate practice, handwashing guidelines, nutrition requirements for infants and preschoolers, guidelines for food preparation and service, and the NAEYC Code of Ethical Conduct and Statement of Commitment. The manual concludes with information about NAEYC and the accreditation fee structure. (Contains 143 references.) (KB)
