To the Members of the UMES Community –
Please be aware that the Board of Examiners from the
NATIONAL COUNCIL FOR
ACCREDITATION OF TEACHER EDUCATION (NCATE) will be reviewing all Professional Education
Unit Programs at UMES beginning Saturday, November
1st through Wednesday, November 5th, 2003, along with
representatives from the MARYLAND STATE DEPARTMENT
OF EDUCATION (MSDE).
At this time our Professional Education Unit Programs
will be reviewed for Initial Accreditation by NCATE
and continued state approval by MSDE.
We appreciate your continued support and encouragement
for this review. Each of you has a stake in this visit
because the development of our candidates are impacted
by all members of the UMES family. Thank you in advance
for all that you will continue to do to ensure our
success in this process.
Please visit our website at www.umes.edu/education to learn more about our programs. We also have information
about our Conceptual
Framework (“PRIDE”) which many of you helped us craft. “Professionals
who are Reflective, Innovative, value Diversity and
are Effective…..”
