Each year in the Annual Report Online (ARO), programs must sign an attestation that summarizes key components of the Standards of Accreditation for Health Service Psychology (SoA)opens in new window and the related Section C Implementing Regulations (IRs)opens in new window. The CoA designed the attestation to give programs the opportunity to affirm that they are operating in a manner that is consistent with all accreditation requirements. Programs must report at the same time on any substantive changes that they or their sponsoring institutions may be undergoing. The CoA considers responses to the attestation when carrying out the annual reaffirmation of programs’ accreditation at each fall’s program review meeting.
In 2024, the revised attestation requires that doctoral programs confirm that they have reviewed the consortium IR (C-30 D).
