2) Campus On-Site Training

ACEI offers comprehensive "in-house" training to all colleges and universities seeking accreditation via NCATE. We have professionally trained personnel who will visit your campus to help interpret the accreditation guidelines for elementary education and give advice on preparing your Program Review.

The training offered is the same excellent training offered by ACEI at our Annual International Conference. By taking advantage of our on-site training, you can save travel costs and time. Furthermore, the training can be conducted at your convenience; therefore, more faculty members can learn how to prepare and submit the Program Review.

Hosting the one day on on-site workshop for faculty members will cost the institution a fee of $1,500 plus the travel expenses (airfare, one night lodging and one day per diem) of the trainer. This fee covers up to 12 participants and includes all materials used during the workshop. A fee of $100 per additional person will be charged for groups larger than 12 participants. ACEI does not limit the number of attendees at an on-site workshop.
