Hi Everyone!
I thought it would be a good idea to give everyone an update on what happened with this conversation. In October, at the Executive Board's Fall Meeting, a motion was passed to create a working group to address and investigate the concerns outlined by the Committee on Accreditation. More information can be found in Executive Board document ebd 12.19 COA/SCOE Working Group and more details will be forthcoming on this work.

The attached document is provided on behalf of the current Committee on Accreditation for consideration by SCOE. It provideds some general information about the Committee of which some ALA members may not be aware. We encourage further work on the structure of COA as SCOE recommendations are taken into consideration by the executive board.
