The physician’s assistant program – part of the University of La Verne’s College of Health and Community Well-being set for official launch in fall 2022 – has had an update in its process of becoming an accredited program: It has gone from provisional accreditation to probationary accreditation, officials announced this week.
The Accreditation Review Commission on Education for the Physician Assistant has recommended that provisional accreditation of the University of La Verne’s Physician Assistant program be withdrawn. The University administration has appealed the decision and must submit that appeal by today.
The University of La Verne’s application for provisional accreditation for a new physician assistant program was denied by the Accreditation Review Commission on Education for the Physician Assistant, or ARC-PA, the accrediting body, president Devorah Lieberman and Provost Jonathan Reed announced Wednesday.
Gilbert Holmes, dean of the College of Law, expresses his gratitude to those throughout the institution for their hard work with the accreditation process.
After almost four decades and more than $30 million, the College of Law this month received full accreditation from the American Bar Association, making it the only nationally accredited law school in the Inland Empire.
