Posted: Tuesday, November 24, 2015Buffalo State NCATE Accreditation Continued
The Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP), formerly the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE), has continued the accreditation of Buffalo State College at the initial teacher preparation and advanced preparation levels through spring 2022. The accreditation decision indicates that Buffalo State and its Teacher Education Unit meet the rigorous standards set forth by the professional education community.
Buffalo State has received continuous accreditation by NCATE since the organization conducted its first review of institutions in 1954. The college offers 79 registered education programs within the Teacher Education Unit.
I would like to congratulate and thank the wonderful faculty, staff, students, and community partners who prepared for and participated in the accreditation process over the past several years. I am proud to report that the accreditors did not cite any areas for improvement relative to any of the standards. That is quite the accomplishment! We have a proud history of preparing excellent teachers here at Buffalo State, and an even brighter future.
