Demystifying NCCA Accreditation: Come Play the Role of a Commissioner

Tuesday, November 19, 2024
9:00 AM – 10:00 AM East Coast USA Time
Location: Splash 11-12
Join the Commissioners from the National Commission for Certifying Agencies (NCCA) to gain insight into how compliance decisions are made. Using a fictitious organization as a case study, attendees will be presented with key facts and examples from the organization's most recent NCCA accreditation application. Attendees will be given the opportunity to make their own determinations of compliance for each example, before hearing from the commissioners regarding what decision would be made and the rationale for that decision. Through real-time decision-making and comprehensive explanations, attendees will gain a deeper understanding of the accreditation standards and criteria, and the rationale behind the Commission’s determinations. Organizations applying for accreditation for the first time and those planning for renewal will find this session equally valuable.

Learning Objectives:

  • Make Informed Decisions: Learn to make informed decisions regarding the adequacy of accreditation application responses through guided decision-making exercises.
  • Rationale Behind Determinations: Understand the rationale behind the Commissioners’ determinations and how to apply this reasoning to your future accreditation applications.
  • Enhance Accreditation Knowledge: Enhance your overall knowledge of accreditation processes and improve your organization’s accreditation readiness.
