NCATE's Specialty Areas Studies Board established a Task Force to develop new criteria for Specialized Professional Associations (SPAs) standards. The new guidelines are designed to ensure that the SPA standards are more focused and more consistent, while still maintaining an emphasis on student learning and on candidate knowledge and skills. You can read a short summary of the proposed guidelines and download a copy of the full report using the links below.
The Task Force will have two open web-based forums to discuss the proposal. The first on July 6, the second on August 12.
