The Committee on Accreditation (COA) of the APA is what is referred to as a program accreditor. Rather than review the credentials of an individual, the Committee reviews the education and training provided by programs. This review includes the qualifications of the faculty and other resources, the appropriateness of the curriculum, and the level of competencies achieved by program graduates as a group. The list of currently accredited programs can be found on the APA website at www.apa.org/ed/accreditation. The CoA accredits programs in the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico.
