How do we get a
consultant to help with our institution's upcoming NCATE review or other program needs?
- Consultant requests for NCATE or other program review efforts are referred through
AACTE's Professional Issues Department.
- Requests should be made by the institutional representative who will be
responsible for the consultant's scope of work with the institution or professional
education unit.
- Following conversation to gain appropriate background information on the nature
and extent of the consultant request, AACTE provides a short list of recommended
consultants that is tailored to the institution's particular request and
institutional context factors (such as teacher education enrollment, program size
and scope).
- Requests may specify consultants with particular experience, for instance Board of
Examiners or Unit Accreditation Board. Institutions may request in-state or
out-of-state consultants, as well as recommendation of individuals to conduct mock
visits in advance of the BoE review. AACTE often provides consultants to
institutions that have received denial or probation decisions on the most recent
NCATE review.
- Information related to consultant requests is treated as confidential.
- For more information and to request consultant referrals, please
contact Mary Beth Nowinski, Coordinator for Technical Assistance
