Since 1952, the NLN has provided leadership in establishing quality assurance and improvement processes in nursing education through the development of professional accreditation standards, that when applied through the accreditation process, provide nursing programs with a public mark of educational quality.  \nWith the establishment of the NLN Commission for Nursing Education Accreditation (CNEA) as a programmatic accrediting body in September 2013, the NLN’s commitment to setting standards that foster quality and excellence in nursing education continues through an accreditation process that is infused with the NLN core values of caring, diversity, integrity, and excellence.  \nAccording to the U.S. Department of Education (2021), accreditation is “the status of public recognition that an accrediting agency grants to an educational institution or program that meets the agency’s standards and requirements (Subpart A 602.3) .” The Council of Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) expands upon this definition by describing accreditation as an external quality review…for quality assurance and quality improvement (Eaton, 2015) . Selfassessment by the institution and program is an important component of the process. Engaging in systematic self-assessment provides the institution and program with a collective opportunity to reflect upon and identify strengths and areas for improvement for the purpose of pursuing continuous quality improvement in their educational mission.  \nThe National League for Nursing CNEA accreditation process encourages the development of a culture of continuous quality improvement as evidenced by the NLN mission statement. Through the establishment of CNEA, an autonomous accreditation division that carries out its work by setting forth accreditation standards infused with the NLN core values, the NLN continues its presence of over a century of effecting and advocating for quality patient care through ensuring quality nursing education.  \nNLN CNEA Mission  \nThe National League for Nursing Commission for Nursing Education Accreditation (CNEA) promotes excellence and integrity in nursing education globally through an accreditation process that respects the diversity of program mission, curricula, students, and faculty; emphasizes a culture of continuous quality improvement; and influences the preparation of a caring and competent nursing workforce.  \nNLN CNEA Accreditation Process and NLN Core Values  \nThe NLN Commission for Nursing Education Accreditation implements its mission and carries out its accreditation activities guided by the NLN’s core values – caring, diversity, integrity, and excellence – as applied to the accreditation process.  \nA culture of caring is demonstrated through an accreditation process that reflects a culture of advocacy for quality assurance in nursing education, and is implemented in a collegial, collaborative context with stakeholders. NLN CNEA staff, governance board, committee members, and onsite evaluation teams demonstrate through their interactions with stakeholders that accreditation standards can be upheld in a rigorous, yet caring and respectful manner.  \nA culture of diversity is evidenced by a commitment to accredit all types of nursing programs from practical/vocational education through clinical doctoral education. NLN CNEA’s accreditation standards reflect a respect for the diversity of nursing programs’ mission, curricula, faculty,","cbCaivp7UxLqcfFY","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivp7UxLqcfFY","pdf",587198,49,"English","# NLN CNEA Overview\n## Accreditation definition and quality review\n## Mission and core values\n# NLN CNEA Accreditation Process\n## Caring\n## Diversity\n## Integrity\n## Excellence\n# Standards of Accreditation\n## Culture of Excellence – Program Outcomes\n## Culture of Integrity and Accountability – Mission, Governance, and Resources\n## Culture of Excellence and Caring – Faculty\n## Culture of Excellence and Caring – Students\n## Culture of Learning and Diversity – Curriculum and Evaluation Processes","[{\"question\":\"What is the NLN CNEA accreditation mission?\",\"answer\":\"NLN CNEA promotes excellence and integrity in nursing education globally by using an accreditation process that respects program diversity, emphasizes continuous quality improvement, and supports preparation of a caring and competent nursing workforce.\"},{\"question\":\"How does NLN CNEA describe accreditation and the role of self-assessment?\",\"answer\":\"Accreditation is presented as an external quality review recognizing programs that meet defined standards and requirements.
