School Psychology EdS Program Received NASP Accreditation Through 2012

Our School Psychology EdS program received full accreditation from NASP (National Association of School Psychologists) until 2012. NASP accreditation also means that our program is nationally recognized by NCATE (National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education).

The accreditation review was very complimentary of the program, noting in particular the program's clear philosophy stressing the data-based decision-making role of the school psychologist, its attention to issues of personal growth, and creative efforts to recruit and retain a diverse student body. The review also commended the commitment of faculty.

Congratulations to program director Patti Warner and the faculty and students of the program for building a first rate, nationally recognized program.
