Session: ABET Updates and Insights (Invited Talks)

Education and Accreditation Committee members will discuss recent updates and insights regarding ABET accreditation. Topics include: program preparation, program evaluator preparation, the visit schedule, post-visit interactions, common criterion issues during a visit, recent changes to accreditation, and accreditation resources. An important aspect this year is a presentation on the new student outcome changes beginning in the 2019-20 accreditation cycle. This session is particularly beneficial for faculty members of programs undergoing ABET accreditation during the next several years and for those interested in becoming program evaluators.
