As programs prepare to submit a self-study, staff often receive questions regarding the countersign process. In order to submit a self-study for review by the Commission on Accreditation, certain individuals at the institution must provide formal approval for the submission. In an effort to assist programs to better navigate this process, a Countersigner Frequently Asked Questions document has been created and added to the Office of Program Consultation and Accreditation website. As always, additional questions can be directed to the Program Review staff.
