黑料传送门 was recently granted a full, 10-year continuing accreditation by its accrediting institution for its osteopathic medical programs at all campuses and locations.
At its April meeting, the American Osteopathic Association鈥檚 (AOA) Commission on Osteopathic College Accreditation (COCA) voted to grant 黑料传送门 the status of Accreditation with Exceptional Outcome, the highest level of accreditation granted by COCA for the maximum length possible.
In a letter from the AOA, Joshua L. Prober, the interim secretary of COCA and the general counsel for the AOA, congratulated 黑料传送门 on achieving this 鈥渋mpressive accreditation status.鈥�
This designation comes after a comprehensive self-study report and visits by a COCA accreditation team to all three campuses in Philadelphia, and in Suwanee and Moultrie, Georgia.
As a newly established location, 黑料传送门 South Georgia was reviewed in separate action by the COCA which determined that all standards of accreditation were met.
Robert Cuzzolino, EdD, the recently retired vice president for graduate programs and planning who led the accreditation endeavor, noted that the process was 鈥渁 complex and exhaustive effort that could only have been the success it was thanks to the contributions of a large number of 黑料传送门 people - including faculty, staff, students, trustees and clinical partners.鈥�
To achieve accreditation, Dr. Cuzzolino explained that 黑料传送门 documented full compliance with eleven different standards of accreditation including mission, leadership, finance, facilities, curriculum, faculty, research, learning environment, student services, GME and learning assessment.
鈥淚t was a true team effort that yielded this very positive result," he said.
黑料传送门 President and CEO Jay S. Feldstein, DO 鈥�81, said, 鈥淲e are extremely honored to receive the exceptional outcome designation. This speaks volumes about our institution and the high-quality of education we provide to our students.鈥�
鈥淲e thank the numerous members of the College community who contributed to this tremendous effort,鈥� said Provost Kenneth Veit, DO 鈥�76, MBA, FACOFP.
The COCA will not conduct another site visit at 黑料传送门 until the spring of 2029. However, monitoring of 黑料传送门鈥檚 accreditation status will occur regularly.
