Important Timelines and Program Coordinator Roles and Responsibilities
November 2024: To accompany our Guidance for Transitioning to the Tiered Model, we have developed two documents to help programs communicate the upcoming timelines and expectations of program coordinators. The Important Timelines for Obtaining ABAI Accreditation document outlines the timeframes that programs seeking ABAI Accreditation should pay particular attention to when considering programmatic revisions. The Program Coordinator Roles and Responsibilities document provides an overview of the roles and responsibilities of the individual serving as the program coordinator. These documents may aid in requesting vital resources needed to align with and meet ABAI Accreditation or Recognition requirements.

October 2024: We are excited to share ABAI’s Recognition Committee recently voted to extend waiving of the following eligibility criterion: the program must have at least one graduate. This waiver is extended an additional year, through December 31, 2026, for established VCSs transitioning to the Tiered Model and applying for recognition (Tiers 2a-4b). Please read the Guidance for Transitioning to the Tiered Model to see this update and more information related to your program’s transition to ABAI recognition.
