Abstract

The Iowa Braille and Sight Saving School completed the Standards Assessment Report which required an in-depth self-assessment that addressed the standards for accreditation defined by the accrediting body; and had an on-site visit by certified Quality Assurance Review team members. IBSSS was accredited for the maximum five-year period allowed by the accrediting body without interim visits required. IBSSS must submit a progress report in 2011 to document progress on the recommendation. This accreditation report addresses the Board of Regents Strategic Plan objective to “offer high-quality programs through ongoing program improvement for undergraduate, graduate, professional, and non-degree students and special school students” and priority “to demonstrate public accountability and effective stewardship of resources.”
