Bibliography for 2011 Standards

The Commission is pleased to provide an extensive bibliography developed specifically for the 2011 Standards for Accreditation. Click on each Standard in the area to the left for the bibliography.

In the process of reviewing/rewriting the Standards a purposeful commitment was made by the Commission to cite current research and best practice in support of the concepts within each of the Standards and the Indicators. Both the Commission and the Commission staff encourage member schools to access the bibliography throughout the decennial cycle. Funding for this work was provided through a grant from the Nellie Mae Education Foundation for which the Commission is deeply appreciative.
