SPA Public Comment Meeting

The University Of Hawaii is applying for re-certification of the Masters Program program in Speech Language Pathology. A critical part of the process is the solicitation of public comment. Individuals who wish to provide input about a CAA-accredited program seeking continued accreditation may do so in two ways:

•by submitting written comments prior to the accreditation site visit in accordance with the procedures specified in the Policy and Procedures on Public Comment, or

•by providing comments to the site visit team during the program's scheduled site visit.

Individuals wishing to comment may do so at a public meeting on:
Monday, March 19, 2007
4:30 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.
Division of Speech Pathology and Audiology Rm 11
1410 Lower Campus Road
Honolulu, HI 96822

All comments must:
•relate to a program's compliance with the published Standards for Accreditation of Graduate Education Programs in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology (Standards), effective January 1, 1999, AND

•identify the specific program seeking candidacy, initial accreditation, or continued accreditation with the CAA. Comments that do not meet the requirements as articulated in the Policy and Procedures on Public Comment will not be considered, and the individual or group commenting will be so notified.

Copies of the Standards and/or the CAA's Policy and Procedures On Public Comment (PDF format) are available on the ASHA Web site. These documents also may be obtained by sending a written request to the Accreditation Office at ASHA, 10801 Rockville Pike, Rockville, MD 20852, by calling ASHA's Action Center at 1-800-498-2071, or by sending an e-mail to accreditation@asha.org.
