The Program Effectiveness Analysis is completed on a three-year cycle.

The Academic Affairs and Standards Council recognizes that NTC programs may be routinely reviewed for accreditation or certification.  It is not the expectation of the AASC that these programs duplicate efforts by submitting yet another set of documents to be reviewed.  In the event a program has been reviewed within a year of the scheduled NTC review using an accreditation or certification process, the only submission required is to identify page numbers using the Criteria Table of Contents as to where information can be found.  In the event accreditation or certification did not require input to one of AASC established criteria, that information should be submitted as an addendum to the accreditation or certification documentation.

Program Effectiveness Indicators include:

• Curriculum Review
