Training | Accreditation Preparation Workshops

Accreditation through CQL is unlike any other, involving an identification of shared values, a deep dedication to person-centeredness, and an ongoing commitment to quality. While the accreditation process can seem overwhelming for organizations, it doesn’t have to be. Organizations can be prepared for their accreditation before CQL even conducts the first review visit.

In our Accreditation Preparation Workshops, we will help your organization get up-to-speed in advance of your accreditation, explore best practices, and lay the foundation for a successful review.

Training Overview

  • 2-day training
  • Presented either in-person or virtually
  • Up to 40 participants

Attendees will learn about the accreditation process, explore the standards, tools, and components of accreditation, preview what they can expect during the initial visit, and get answers to questions. Participants will also gain insight into the impact that accreditation will have on your leadership, staff, stakeholders, and most importantly, people supported.

Organizations hosting an Accreditation Preparation Workshop will receive information specific to their accreditation type, including Quality Assurances Accreditation, Person-Centered Excellence Accreditation, or Person-Centered Excellence Accreditation, With Distinction. Organizations should note that while Accreditation Preparation Workshops can be a useful resource in getting an agency ready for their accreditation., they are not required to have a successful accreditation.
