Standards for an Accredited Educational Program in Radiologic Sciences EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2002 Adopted by: The Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology: January 1996; Revised 2001 Essentials initially adopted: Radiography-1944; Revised 1955, 1969, 1978, 1983, 1990, 1994 Radiation Therapy-1968; Revised 1976, 1981, 1988, 1994 The Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology is dedicated to excellence in education and to quality and safety of patient care through the accreditation of educational programs in radiation and imaging sciences. The Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology (JRCERT) is recognized by the United States Department of Education to accredit educational programs in radiography and radiation therapy. The JRCERT awards accreditation to programs demonstrating substantial compliance with these STANDARDS. Copyright © 2001 by the JRCERT Statement on Assessment of Program Effectiveness 1 The Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology (JRCERT) believes that the accreditation process offers a means of providing public assurance that a program meets standards and of stimulating programmatic improvement. The JRCERT Standards for an Accredited Educational Program in Radiologic Sciences (STANDARDS) require a program to articulate its purposes; to demonstrate that it has adequate human, financial, and physical resources effectively organized for the accomplishment of its purposes; to document its effectiveness in accomplishing its purposes; and to provide assurance that it can continue to meet accreditation standards. A variety of assessment approaches in its evaluation processes strengthens a program’s ability to document its effectiveness. The JRCERT believes that assessment leads to programmatic improvement. The JRCERT does not prescribe a specific approach to assessment.
