University Accreditation
Overview of University Planning Degree Program AccreditationAccredited gold certificate
Universities with planning degree programs (under-graduate or graduate) may apply to PSB to have those programs accredited. Accreditation is for a period of up to five years, . Note: A program, if accredited, is accredited to the end of the last indicated academic year
. Annual Reviews
Around the anniversary of the program’s accreditation, PSB will review with the university its status to determine whether the program should continue to be accredited. This is not an in-depth review, although a serious falling-away from the standard for accreditation may trigger such a review. If concerns are identified, the university will be asked to take corrective action to address them.
Intensive Review
As noted above, accreditation is for a period of up to five years. At the end of that time, an intensive review will be undertaken by PSB. This process is very similar to the initial accreditation in scope.
