Many programs
have several weaknesses or
deficiencies noted during
the accreditation or
re-accreditation process.
If these problems cannot be
resolved before the
program's accreditation
status is discussed at the
next JRC-CVT meeting, the program will be required to submit a progress report
to document addressing any citations. Progress reports are generally
due within 6-12 months and may vary from questions about specific Standards
(e.g. resources, medical direction, etc.) to requests for resubmission of the
entire self-study report. Since revised self-study reports
result in major expense and
time commitment by the
educational institution,
they are requested only for
programs with serious
multiple deficiencies.
After
submitting a progress report
acceptable to JRC-CVT, the
program is so notified and
accreditation continues.
When an inadequate progress
report is received, JRC-CVT
will request resubmission
and may also recommend
Probationary Accreditation.
Failure to submit a progress
report will result in the
JRC-CVT recommending the
program be placed on
Administrative Probation.
Requests for
progress reports usually
occur in conjunction with
initial accreditation or
re-accreditation comprehensive review. They may,
however, be required at any
time in response to
deficiencies noted in annual Report
of Current Status
submissions or at other
times of program difficulty.
Purpose
The purpose of the progress report is to give the program the
opportunity to provide additional documentation in order to come into
compliance with the
Standards.
Description
In addressing
weaknesses or deficiencies
in resource assessment
within the progress report,
the resource
assessment system must
include:
1. purpose for the resource;
2. measurement systems for the
resource;
3. schedule (time frame) for
measurement;
4. analysis of the measurement results; and
5. action plan
correcting deficiencies.
