Teacher preparation programs

Accreditation & assessment consulting for teacher preparation programs

Partnership for educator preparation programs navigating CAEP, AAQEP, and state approval — from assessment system design to self-study writing to site visit support. Built on years of leading accreditation from inside institutions and serving as an accreditation reviewer.

Focus areas for EPPs

CAEP self-study & site visit preparation

Standards alignment, evidence narratives, and reviewer-ready documentation for the full CAEP cycle — including annual reporting measures.

AAQEP self-study support

Program-defined evidence, quality assurance system design, and Quality Review preparation across AAQEP's four standards.

Assessment systems for teacher preparation

Coherent measurement across candidate performance, completer effectiveness, and P-12 impact — built to survive between accreditation cycles.

State program approval

Support for state-specific approval processes, including California CTC and Texas TEA, aligned with your national accreditation work.

Why assessment matters as much as accreditation

The strongest teacher preparation programs treat assessment and accreditation as one connected system, not two separate tasks. When candidate assessments feed program improvement, and program data informs institutional decisions, self-study becomes a reflection of real work — not a document written from scratch every seven years.

Whether your EPP is pursuing initial CAEP accreditation, transitioning to AAQEP, or preparing for a Quality Review, Dr. Bogunovich helps you build the assessment infrastructure that supports both compliance and continuous improvement.
