Overview
The College of Education and P-16 Integration embraces a culture of inquiry for continuous improvement and collaboration with P-16 partners as reflected in its mission and vision.
UTRGV’s Educator Preparation Provider (EPP) unit is an overarching body that includes five colleges that collaborate on the development, delivery, assessment, and accreditation of all teacher preparation programs. The dean of the College of Education and P-16 Integration leads the EPP and promotes partnership building among colleges to collaborate in the preparation of teachers.
The Board of Directors of the Council for Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP) met July 12-14, 2018, for the purpose of making accreditation decisions. Two counseling specialty areas housed in the College of Education and P-16 Integration at The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley were reviewed under the 2016 CACREP Standards.
The Board based the above accreditation decisions on an extensive review of the self-study documents, the visiting team's report, and the institution's response to the visiting team's report.
