Accreditation Actions
October 2020 Accreditation Action: Accept the Progress Report.
Rationale: The program is compliant with all Standards.
Accreditation Award: Continuing Accreditation.
March 2020 Accreditation Action: Grant 10 years of Initial Accreditation with a Progress Report. The program remains non-compliant with the following Standards:
The following Standards are Partially Met:
Standard 13. Program-Specific Curriculum. It is unclear, if the modified courses have been taught with new content, therefore Domains F1, F3, F5, F7, F8, and F9 remain partially met. Program modifications must be implemented to be considered Met.
In addition, as a requirement of this domain, how does the program assure that students participating in the TUMS project are in inter-professional teams?
Standard 16. Professional Development. Faculty teaching courses in this Program need to annually demonstrate how they stay current with evolving issues and practices in health informatics. Professional development activities are missing for some faculty.
Standard 17. Resources and Services. The University writing services for online students are not equitable with on-campus students.
