Accreditation Proposals

Proposal Review Timeline AAQEP accepts proposals on a rolling basis and matches them with peer reviewers three times per year: August 15, November 15, and March 15. You will receive feedback approximately 3 months after the match date. How to Submit Your Proposal Once your proposal is complete, save it as a PDF and email it to aaqep@aaqep.org.

The following resources support members' work on Accreditation Proposals, an optional step in the AAQEP quality assurance cycle that typically takes place 2-3 years prior to the site visit. Get formative feedback on your planned evidence set from peer reviewers in time to inform your next self-study!
