2024 NACEP National Conference

Accreditation Institute - Orlando, FL:

Join us in Orlando, Florida at the NACEP National Conference for the one-day pre-conference Accreditation Institute. The event will take place on Sunday, October 27, 2024.

9:00 am - 4:00 pm, Lunch included

Audience: We welcome all program partners, including college & university administrators, deans, program directors/staff, faculty liaisons, and secondary partners such as superintendents, principals, high school teachers, and school counselors.

Join NACEP in Orlando, Florida, for our one-day Accreditation Institute focused exclusively on NACEP’s National Standards for Quality for our Concurrent Enrollment Program (CEP) and College-Provided Faculty Model (CPF) endorsements. This institute is tailored more for established programs seeking re-accreditation (in the upcoming 2025-2026 & 2026-2027 cycles), but welcomes those seeking to learn more. It's imperative for teams from your institution/program to participate, ideally with a minimum of two members.

What to expect? The institute will leverage a number of NACEP’s guides and resources, and review the required materials essential for the accreditation application process, preparation, and submission.

How to prepare? For further details about the accreditation application process and required materials, please refer to the Application Process & Resources and Accreditation Institute webpages.

Don't miss this opportunity to equip your program with the knowledge and tools necessary for accreditation success. We look forward to seeing you in Orlando!
