ACCREDITATION Accreditation is a voluntary process by which an institution volunteers to be evaluated by a specific, non-governmental accrediting body. The conferral of this accreditation indicates the institution has met pre-set standards of the accrediting body. It does not mean that all institutions with similar accreditation are the same; however, there is an implied assurance that a minimal level of quality is provided by an accredited institution. This method of industry self-regulation and quality control is fairly unique to the U.S. Accrediting bodies are recognized by both the U.S. Department of Education and Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA). Two main categories of accreditation exist, and are outlined as follows: INSTITUTIONAL ACCREDITATION Institutional accreditation evaluates a entire institution (as opposed to just one program or college within a university). In addition to academics, this includes evaluation of governance and administration, financial stability, student services, resources (libraries, computer lab's), academic achievement of the student body, the institution's overall effectiveness in accomplishing their mission, and their relationships with constituencies outside their institution. The accreditation review teams are usually comprised of other accredited institutions. Institutional accreditation in the United States fall into two categories: regional and national. REGIONAL ACCREDITATION Regional accreditation is granted through six regional bodies or agencies. As stated, these bodies are named after the geographic region which they serve. Some institutions are evaluated by more than one regional agency if their locations cross regional boundaries. To an institution which receives regional accreditation, it means recognition by their peers that they provide a quality education at the college level. Accreditation assures customers - students that the institution has met comparable standards of academic quality and fiscal soundness that is similar to other countries, although our system is voluntary. Schools at any level can gain regional accreditation: 2-year programs (community or junior colleges), 4-year bachelor programs (colleges), and those which also have graduate level programs (colleges and universities). In the U.S., the words “college”, “academy”, “institute” and “university” do not necessarily confirm the school is regionally accredited (thereby considered for acceptance into higher education institutions) is to check that the school’s accreditation is one of the following seven agencies: - Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Higher Education - New England Association of Schools and Colleges Commission on Institutions of Higher Education - North Central Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Institutions of Higher Education - Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges Commission on Colleges - Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges - Western Association of Schools and Colleges Accrediting Commission - Community and Junior Colleges/Accrediting Commission for Senior Colleges and Universities As many of these agencies also accredit secondary schools and technical institutes in their regions, it is important that the accreditation comes from the commissions listed above. NATIONAL ACCREDITATION Accreditation assures the student that the school is a legitimate institution, has a curriculum or training plan and holds classes, as national accrediting bodies also perform institutional evaluations; however, these agencies determine their membership by purpose rather than geographical region. However, this coursework is not transferable to higher education institutions. Other regionally-accredited institutions, credits from nationally-accredited schools and colleges are generally not accepted in transfer toward degree programs. The reason is two-fold: the coursework offered will usually be intended to meet specif - ic occupational markets, and courses/programs taught at nationally-accredited institutions usually do not meet the same academic standards as those taught at regionally-accredited institutions. To education customers, this means that the education received at nationally-accredited institutions performs an important role in providing religious and/or vocational training, however, it is not transferable by nature of the purpose of this education. SPECIALIZED ACCREDITATION Specialized accrediting bodies evaluate specific programs of study or colleges within an institution. Their membership is usually determined by field of study or profession. Therefore, an institution can hold regional accreditation institution-wide, and simultaneously hold specialized accreditation in specific disciplines such as architecture, business, engineering and nursing. Master students who plan to enter Doctoral programs should investigate that institution’s program to insure graduate programs meet their entrance requirements.

    Arizona 2010 - 2011 Meeting community needs in Arizona. More than 15,000 people of all ages and backgrounds are helping to meet local needs, strengthen communities, and increase civic engagement through national service in Arizona. Serving with more than 360 national and local nonprofits, schools, faith-based organizations and other groups, these citizens tutor and mentor children, support veterans and military families, provide health services, restore the environment, respond to disasters, increase economic opportunity, and recruit and manage volunteers. This year, the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) will commit more than $19,100,000 to support Arizona communities through national service initiatives including: Senior Corps: More than 1,800 seniors in Arizona contribute their time and talents in one of three Senior Corps programs. Foster Grandparents serve one-on-one as tutors and mentors to more than 700 young people who have special needs. Senior Companions help more than 630 homebound seniors and other adults maintain independence in their own homes. RSVP volunteers conduct safety patrols for local police departments, protect the environment, tutor and mentor youth, respond to natural disasters, and provide other services through more than 270 groups across Arizona. AmeriCorps: This year AmeriCorps will provide more than 2,100 individuals the opportunity to provide intensive, results-driven service to meet education, environmental, health, economic, and other pressing needs in communities across Arizona. Most AmeriCorps grant funding goes to the Governor-appointed Arizona Governor's Commission on Service and Volunteerism, which in turn awards grants to nonprofit groups to respond to local needs. Most of the remainder of the grant funding is distributed by CNCS directly to multi-state and national organizations through a competitive grants process.
