Publication of Accreditation Status

 

Subject to the limits specified below, AAHRPP publishes the name of the organization, the type of organization, its category of accreditation, and the date (month and year) it was initially accredited. In addition, AAHRPP encourages the accredited organization to publicize its AAHRPP accreditation status. When an organization publicizes its accreditation status, it must do so accurately and not in a manner that could be misleading.

AAHRPP does not publish the name of or release information about an organization that is in the process of seeking accreditation or that has been placed in the Accreditation-Pending or Accreditation Withheld categories.

AAHRPP does not release information about an organization that is in the process of renewing its accreditation or that has been placed in the Reaccreditation-Pending category. An organization that is placed in the Reaccreditation-Pending category remains on the published list of accredited organizations.

An organization will be removed from the published list if it is placed on Probation or has its accreditation revoked.

When AAHRPP receives an inquiry about an organization, AAHRPP only releases information that is publicly available and published on our website. AAHRPP refers all inquirers to the organization in question.
