USCB seeks public input on nursing program accreditation

From staff reports

The University of South Carolina Beaufort (USCB) has announced the upcoming accreditation visit from the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE) for its Baccalaureate of Science in Nursing (BSN) program. The BSN program’s current CCNE accreditation is set for renewal on June 30, 2024. As part of the re-accreditation process, USCB will host an on-site program evaluation from October 23 to 25, 2023.
CCNE invites program constituents and interested parties to contribute third-party comments on the program’s eligibility for accreditation. USCB welcomes local stakeholders and others to provide valuable feedback directly to CCNE regarding the merits of the BSN program.
Written third-party comments are accepted by CCNE until October 2, 2023. Please note that CCNE shares these comments with the evaluation team ahead of the visit, but they remain confidential during the review process. The evaluation team considers third-party comments aligned with accreditation standards to ensure a comprehensive and unbiased assessment.
All third-party comments must comply with CCNE’s policy on Conduct of Business in English, including the author’s signature. Feedback can be directed by email to thirdpartycomments@ccneaccreditation.org or by mail to Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education, Attn: Third-Party Comments, 655 K Street, NW, Suite 750, Washington, DC 20001.
