MANDATE AND FOCUS

The Child and Youth Care Educational Accreditation Board of Canada (CYCEAB) is charged with the accreditation of child and youth care post-secondary programs. CYCAB accreditation activities document efforts to be accountable to children, youth, and families; to students; and to the profession.

WHY ACCREDITATION?

High quality education is a result of sound evaluation and continuous improvement. Accreditation is a process for regular, rigorous review of program goals, pedagogies, and outcomes. It facilitates dialogue and education within and across CYC programs about innovation and quality, assisting with decision-making about where and how to situate a school, department, or program.

MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION

Each member will designate one voting representative for general meetings. The members of the board shall serve and vote as individuals and not as functional constituents of the bodies to which they belong. You must be a member to apply for accreditation.
