The Council on Chiropractic Education (CCE) and its Commission on Accreditation is an autonomous national organization recognized by the Secretary of the United States Department of Education as the authority on the quality of training offered by chiropractic colleges. In addition to establishing accreditation criteria for the education of primary care chiropractic physicians, the CCE seeks to ensure the quality of chiropractic education in the United States by stimulating educational excellence within its member programs or institution, and informing the educational community and the public of the nature, quality and integrity of chiropractic education. Certain requirements must be met before accreditation status can be initially received, or renewed. The CCE Standards for Chiropractic Programs and Institutions include criteria for assessment and planning: governance and administration, facilities, services and policies, instructional program objectives and content, faculty qualifications, admission requirements, outcomes assessment, clinical competency, and research. The CCE is a member of the Council on Higher Education Accreditation (C.H.E.A.) and the Association of Specialized and Professional Accredators (A.S.P.A.).
