Self-Study Task Force
The Institutional Self-Study Task Force is responsible for overseeing, advising, and promoting excellence during the self-study period and during the accreditation site visit.
The Steering Committee convenes early in the self-study process to help design and staff the self-study committees, and the self-study committees are responsible for generating reports about the MD program’s compliance with the 12 LCME standards. Each self-study committee is assigned responsibility for one or several of the LCME standards.
