Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs, (or CAAHEP), is an agency of accreditation for the accredits postsecondary education programs in 19 different allied health and related fields. Programmatic accreditation is granted after an education program is reviewed and it is determined that the program is in compliance with the profession’s accreditation Standards.〔The profession's accreditation Standards designate what an entry-level health care employee in a particular field needs to know in order to be successful in that field〕 A not-for-profit organization, CAAHEP is recognized by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA). It is based in Clearwater, Florida. == Members and leadership == *CAAHEP's members are organizations that represent the professions accredited by CAAHEP and/or the institutions that teach CAAHEP accredited programs. *CAAHEP’s leadership is composed of both a Commission and a Board of Directors.〔(CAAHEP Commissioners and Board of Directors )〕 The individuals who serve as Commissioners are representatives from CAAHEP’s sponsoring organizations, along with a recent graduate of a CAAHEP accredited program and members of the general public. The Commissioners approve the organization’s mission, vision, and bylaws, and decide which health science professions qualify to take part in the CAAHEP accreditation system. CAAHEP is also led by a Board of Directors, whose members are elected from among the Commissioners.When an education program in a health science profession seeks CAAHEP accreditation, the program will work with that profession’s Committee on Accreditation (CoA).〔It is the CoA that leads the program through accreditation process, reviewing the self-study, organizing the site visit of the program, and formulating the accreditation recommendation of the program for approval by the CAAHEP Board of Directors〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
