Candidate Programs
Definition of Candidate for Accreditation: Candidate for Accreditation is a status that indicates that the orthotic and prosthetic education program is progressing toward formal accreditation. Attainment of Candidate for Accreditation status does not assure accreditation by NCOPE/CAAHEP. The purpose is to help assure that the institution develops an O&P program with adequate planning and with the necessary resources (e.g., leadership, faculty, physical plant, budget, clinical education sites).
