What's New
February 10, 2012 We are pleased to share the following letter with you that we received from Accreditation Canada. Check out our full report on the web site under "Quality Initiatives." February 8, 2012 Mrs. Catherine Kohm Executive Director Dear Mrs. Kohm: As per the e-mail from Accreditation Canada on October 31, 2011, the new accreditation decision levels came into effect on January 1, 2012. Client organizations now receive one of four decisions following their on-site survey: Accredited with Exemplary Standing Accredited with Commendation Accredited Not Accredited These decisions are calculated based on the organization’s compliance with the standards, high-priority criteria, Required Organizational Practices tests for compliance, and survey instrument sample size thresholds. Since the new accreditation decision levels are retroactive to surveys that took place in 2011, your organization’s decision has been recalculated. I am pleased to advise you that the new decision for Haro Park Centre Society is Accredited with Exemplary Standing. You will be receiving a replacement certificate(s) reflecting your organization’s new decision. Please be advised that new banners will be available shortly. Sincerely, Suzanne Larocque Chair, Accreditation Decision Committee |
