Evaluation Is an 18-Month, Five-Step Process.</h2> <div class="block-content"><p>ABET accreditation is the culmination of a practice of ongoing self-assessment and continuous improvement, which assures confidence that ABET-accredited programs are meeting the needs of their students, preparing graduates to enter their careers, and responsive to the needs of the professions and the world. This process has to be initiated by the institution.</p> <p>For a visual timeline of the accreditation process, see <a href="https://www.abet.org/accreditation/get-accredited/accreditation-step-by-step/">Accreditation Step-by-Step</a>.</p> <h3>Beforehand – Assessment and Eligibility</h3> <p>Before seeking ABET accreditation, your program should determine if it falls into the categories that we accredit, and that it meets our <a title="Program Eligibility Requirements" href="https://www.abet.org/accreditation/what-is-accreditation/eligibility-requirements/">Eligibility Requirements</a>. Prior to seeking an accreditation review, each program must have a functioning <a title="Continuous Improvement: The Heart of Accreditation" href="https://www.abet.org/accreditation/get-accredited/assessment-planning/">assessment process</a> in place that meets our <a title="Accreditation Criteria & Supporting Documents" href="https://www.abet.org/accreditation/accreditation-criteria/">criteria</a> for accreditation in three areas: Program Educational Objectives, Student Outcomes, and Continuous Improvement.</p> </div> </section> <section class="block block-text block-callout" id=""> <div class="block-content"><p>The Accreditation Process</p> </div> </section> <section class="block block-stepslist"> <ol class="stepslist-steps"> <li class="stepslist-step" id=""> <h3>Readiness Review</h3> <div class="step-content"><p>Programs seeking initial accreditation by a commission for which the institution currently has no ABET-accredited programs must undergo a <a title="Readiness Review" href="https://www.abet.org/accreditation/get-accredited/accreditation-step-by-step/readiness-review/">Readiness Review</a>. One preliminary Self-Study Report per program should be sent to <a href="mailto:readinessreview@abet.org">readinessreview@abet.org</a> by October 1. The Readiness Review—one of our eligibility requirements—will help determine whether or not your program is ready to submit a formal Request for Evaluation (RFE).</p> </div> </li> <li class="stepslist-step" id=""> <h3>Request for Evaluation</h3> <div class="step-content"><p>Programs that have:</p> <ol> <li>met all eligibility requirements for ABET accreditation,</li> <li>implemented assessment processes, and</li> <li>if required, completed the readiness review may begin the accreditation process by filing a <a title="Request for Evaluation" href="https://www.abet.org/accreditation/get-accredited/request-for-evaluation/">Request for Evaluation (RFE)</a> by January 31 of the year in which the program is seeking an on-site visit.</li> </ol> <p>Every RFE must be accompanied by one official transcript from a recent program graduate.</p> <p>For programs located outside of the U.S., the RFE must also be accompanied by the <a href="https://www.abet.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Request-for-Acknowledgement-RFA.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Request for Acknowledgement (RFA) form</a> and all required certified/official translations.</p> </div> </li> <li class="stepslist-step" id=""> <h3>Self-Study Report</h3> <div class="step-content"><p>Once your program has submitted a Request for Evaluation, it must submit a <a title="Self-Study Report" href="https://www.abet.org/accreditation/get-accredited/accreditation-step-by-step/self-study-report/">Self-Study Report</a> to ABET Headquarters by July 1. The chair of your program’s accreditation review team will then instruct you on distributing copies of the Self-Study Report to each member of the review team.</p> </div> </li> <li class="stepslist-step" id=""> <h3>The On-Site Visit</h3> <div class="step-content"><p><a title="On-Site Visit" href="https://www.abet.org/accreditation/get-accredited/accreditation-step-by-step/on-site-visit/">On-Site visits</a> are typically scheduled between September and December in the same year of an RFE submission. For programs located in the U.S., the on-site visit usually takes place between September and December, generally Sunday through Tuesday. Programs outside the U.S. may have a different schedule.</p> <p>Once the on-site visit is set, you will be asked to schedule interviews and provide meeting spaces and display materials to assist the review team in its evaluation. The on-site visit will conclude with an exit meeting, at which the review team will convey its findings.</p> </div> </li> <li class="stepslist-step" id=""> <h3>Due Process and the Accreditation Decision</h3> <div class="step-content"><p>Approximately two to three months after the on-site visit, we will send your institution a Draft Statement containing a section for each program reviewed. The institution has a <a title="Due Process Response Period" href="https://www.abet.org/accreditation/get-accredited/accreditation-step-by-step/due-process-response-period/">30-Day Due Process</a> response period from receipt of the Draft Statement to provide information on actions the programs have taken to resolve any identified shortcomings.</p> <p>The back-and-forth process of the due process review period must be completed before the commission’s decision-making meeting in July, when each team chair presents his/her team’s findings to the commission responsible for the accreditation decision.</p> <p>A Final Statement is prepared and sent to the institution by August 31. The Final Statement is based on the review team’s findings, the program’s responses, and communicates the <a href="https://www.abet.org/accreditation/get-accredited/decision-notification/">accreditation commission’s decision</a>.</p> </div> </li> </ol> </section> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="mainrow twocol sidebarright"> <div class="container"> <div class="columns "> <div class="column column-left wide-column"> <section class="block block-photo " id=""> <img src="https://www.abet.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/drone.jpg" alt=""> </section> </div> <div class="column column-right sidebar"> <section class="block block-itemslist"> <h2>Learn More</h2> <div class="itemslist-items"> <section class="block-itemslist-item" id=""> <div class="item-content"><p>For more information or answers to questions specific to ABET accreditation and your program or institution, please contact our <a href="mailto:accreditation@abet.org">Accreditation Department</a>.</p> </div> </section> </div> </section> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div>  <a href="#" class="link2top show"><span class="icon-arrow-top"></span></a> <footer class="footer"> <div class="beconfident">Be Confident<sup>SM</sup></div> <div class="container"> <div class="footercols"> <div class="footercol contact-info"> <address> ABET<br> 415 North Charles St.<br> Baltimore, MD 21201<br> +1.410.347.7700 </address> <ul class="smlinks"> <li class="facebook"><a href="https://www.facebook.com/abetaccredit/">Facebook</a></li> <li class="twitter"><a href="https://twitter.com/abetaccredit">Twitter</a></li> <li class="linkedin"><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/abet-">LinkedIn</a></li> <li class="instagram"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/abetaccredit/">Instagram</a></li> <li class="medium"><a href="https://medium.com/@ABETaccredit">Medium</a></li> <li class="vimeo"><a href="https://vimeo.com/abetaccredit">Vimeo</a></li> </ul> <div class="iso-cert"> <a href="https://www.abet.org/accreditation/what-is-accreditation/why-abet-accreditation-matters/iso-90012015/"> <img src="https://www.abet.org/wp-content/themes/abet/img/iso9001.png"> </a> <p>ABET has ISO 9001:2015 certification.</p> </div> </div> <div class="footercol quickactions"> <ul class="quick-links"><li class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-20427"><a href="https://amspub.abet.org/aps">Find a Program</a></li> <li class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page current-menu-item page_item page-item-143 current_page_item menu-item-11584"><a href="https://www.abet.org/accreditation/get-accredited/" aria-current="page">Get Accredited</a></li> <li class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-15498"><a href="https://www.abet.org/program-evaluators/become-a-program-evaluator/">Become an Evaluator</a></li> </ul> <div id="signupblock"> <a class="button expandbutton">Sign up for Updates</a> <div class="signupform">  <script charset="utf-8" type="text/javascript" src="//js.hsforms.net/forms/v2.js"></script> <script> hbspt.forms.create({ portalId: '3928321', formId: 'fd05deca-56c8-43c0-932d-9515c35c2e8f', css: '' });
