2009 Conditions for Accreditation National Architectural Accrediting Board, Inc. PART TWO (II): EDUCATIONAL OUTCOMES AND CURRICULUM The program must document its current performance relative to student learning and the curricular framework for learning and student achievement. Programs must demonstrate that graduates are learning at the level of achievement defined for each of the Student Performance Criteria (SPC) that will be listed in this Part. Compliance will be evaluated through the review of student work. Programs must also demonstrate their compliance with requirements that address the curricular framework for NAAB accredited degrees. Programs must document their processes for evaluating students admitted to the professional degree program. This Part has four sections that address the following: Student Performance. This section includes the Student Performance Criteria (SPC). Curricular Framework. This section will address the program and institution relative to regional accreditation, degree nomenclature, credit hour requirements, general education and access to elective study as well as accurate public information concerning the accredited and non-accredited architecture programs. In this section, programs are asked to describe the process by which curriculum is evaluated and how changes or modifications are proposed and implemented. Evaluation of Preparatory/Pre-professional Education. The NAAB recognizes that students entering an accredited program from a pre-professional program and those entering an accredited program from a non-pre-professional degree program have different needs, aptitudes and knowledge bases. In this section, programs will be required to demonstrate the process by which incoming students are evaluated and to document that the SPC expected to have been met in educational experiences in non-accredited programs have indeed been met. Public Information. The NAAB expects accredited degree programs to provide information to the public regarding accreditation activities and the relationship between the program and the NAAB, as well as career information for students and parents. 20
