Does CAAHEP accreditation expire?
With the exception of initial accreditation, CAAHEP accreditation does not expire. Initial accreditation is for 3 to 5 years (the length of time is dependant on the CoA with whom you are working). At the end of the designated timeframe, a program may be awarded continuing accreditation or its initial accreditation may be allowed to expire.
Once a program has received continuing accreditation, accreditation remains in place until the CAAHEP Board of Directors votes otherwise. CAAHEP policy does currently require a comprehensive review at least once every 10 years.
The CAAHEP Board of Directors reserves the right to place a program on probation or withdraw accreditation at such time that the program no longer meets CAAHEP Standards and has been appropriately notified.
