Since February 2016, ASPPH members have been reviewing and formulating reactions to the Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH) Round 3 accreditation proposals. ASPPH staff supported discussions during committee, council, section, and forum conference calls; in-person meetings during the annual conference in March; and via two open webinars specifically focused on the Round 3 draft documents.

The ASPPH Accreditation Committee sponsored their second webinar during Round 3 on Wednesday, May 4 on the topic and encourages further comments on the draft association-wide response to CEPH. Your feedback is requested by Wednesday, May 11 by 5:00 p.m. to Ms. Liz Weist at eweist@aspph.org.

Please note that the ASPPH comment submission process should not be considered a substitute for institutional or individual means of commenting. All are encouraged to comment directly to CEPH by emailing Ms. Mollie Mulvanity at mmulvanity@ceph.org as well as through this ASPPH process.

Many thanks to Dean David Goff (Colorado), who is leading ASPPH in preparing its Round 3 response, and to the many chairs and leaders among the various ASPPH groups assisting in crafting our recommendations.
