This self-guided online course is designed to provide an overview of the ACA Accreditation Process. This page will guide you to the registration for the course, but it is not date-dependent.  

Every camp being visited must have at least one person complete this online course on behalf of the camp; that person must actively assist in preparation for the accreditation visit, be engaged in on-site operations during the camp season, and participate fully in the on-site accreditation visit. In order for a camp to receive an accreditation visit, this course must be completed no later than March 31. 

*Multiple people from a camp may take this course.

Objectives 

Participants feel excited, engaged, and ready to manage the accreditation process for their camp. They know where to find and how to use information, resources, and technology provided by ACA. They can navigate the Accreditation Process Guide v.2019 to understand compliance and applicability of standards, including how to maintain accreditation through visit and nonvisit years, and the purpose and steps of preparing written documentation.  

Audience 

This online course is designed for camp leadership who are preparing for accreditation visits in the upcoming season or are new to the accreditation process. The online course is also appropriate for those who are considering seeking accreditation for the first time.
