The guide emphasizes self-analysis, inclusion of students/residents and administrators, use of quantitative data as supporting evidence (not evaluative conclusions), and preparation for an effective site visit.","Commission on Dental Accreditation\nSelf-Study Guide for\nthe Evaluation of an\nAdvanced Dental Education Program in Oral and Maxillofacial\nRadiology\nSelf-Study Guide\nfor the Evaluation of an\nAdvanced Dental Education Program in\nOral and Maxillofacial Radiology\nCommission on Dental Accreditation\n211 East Chicago Avenue\nChicago, Illinois 60611-2678\n312-440-4653\n\u0013 HYPERLINK \"https://coda.ada.org/\" \u0014https://coda.ada.org/\u0015\nCopyright ©2024\nCommission on Dental Accreditation\nAll rights reserved.

It is suggested that the institution initiate the self-study process approximately 12 months prior to completion of the Self-Study Report.  The primary focus of the self-study process should be to assess the effectiveness of the educational program in meeting (1) the program’s stated goals and objectives and (2) the Commission’s Accreditation Standards.  The United States Department of Education (USDE) requires the use of an institutional or programmatic self-study as a part of the accreditation process.\nThe Self-Study Report should be a concise, yet thorough, summary of the findings of the self-study process.  The Commission hopes that the self-study will be a catalyst for program improvement that continues long after the accreditation process has been completed.  In its opinion, this is a more likely outcome if there is thorough planning, as well as involvement of students/residents and administrators in the self-study process.  Most programs will concentrate upon questions germane to the Commission’s Accreditation Standards.  Nevertheless, the benefits of self-study are directly related to the extent to which programs evaluate their efforts, not simply in light of minimal standards for accreditation, but also in reference to the program’s stated goals and objectives as well as standards for educational excellence.  Assessment of the effectiveness of the institution’s procedures should be reviewed as the means to achieve the intended outcomes.  That is to say that the procedures are not ends in themselves, but are means for reaching the chosen goals.  Conclusions of the self-study may include qualitative evaluation of any aspect of the program whether it is covered in the Self-Study Guide or not.  Programs must respond to all questions included in the Self-Study Guide.  The responses should be succinct, but must in every case provide or cite evidence demonstrating achievement of objectives in compliance with each of the Accreditation Standards.\nThe self-study process: The following outline summarizes the philosophy, purposes and expected benefits of the self-study process.
