Applying Public Management Concepts to Ourselves: Accreditation Under the New Master Degree Mission Standards.

Williams, David G.

Journal of Public Administration Education, v2 n2 p175-82 Oct 1996

The shift to mission-based assessment for accreditation of public administration education programs is discussed from two perspectives: that of the chair of the Commission on Peer Review and Accreditation (COPRA), and that of a faculty member with experience in preparing for, undergoing, and responding to COPRA concerns during an accreditation review under the new standards.
