National Accreditation Program


The National Accreditation Program is designed to ensure that chapters and colonies are meeting the minimum expectations for chapter operations and member development while aspiring to achieve greater engagement and positive Fraternal experiences at a local level. We embrace the diversity of skillsets and experiences our chapters offer their members and community; this program is designed to help encourage chapters to further shape their futures. All chapters and colonies are expected to participate in the National Accreditation Program on a semester-basis.

Each chapter/colony is expected to achieve at least 80% of the 20 total expectations listed under Membership Development & Chapter Operations in order to attain Bronze Accreditation. In order to achieve Silver or Gold, Bronze must be met, as well as the chapter/colony executing on at least 4 and 6 Engagement Goals respectively. Chapters/colonies will submit an Engagement Goals Worksheet for each Engagement Goal they intend to accomplish that semester; this will be due Mar. 7 for Spring semesters and Oct. 7 for Fall semesters. Throughout the semester, the chapter/colony will document progress, small wins, and areas of need as part of the President's Monthly Report, due every 7th of each month that school is in session. By the end of the semester, reflection on Engagement Goals will be held via the End of Term report.

Bronze Status: Meet 80+% of total expectations in Member Development & Chapter Operations.
Silver Status: Complete Bronze Status. Create, plan, execute, and reflect on at least 4 Engagement Goals that apply to the list below.
