ABPTRFE encourages third-party comments for those programs seeking initial or renewal of accreditation.

Comments must be submitted no later than:

  • Dec. 31 for programs being reviewed at ABPTRFE's January meeting.
  • April 30 for programs being reviewed at ABPTRFE's May meeting
  • Aug. 30 for programs being reviewed at ABPTRFE's September meeting.

Comments are submitted to ABPTRFE via email. The message must include the program name as well as the name, title, affiliation, and contact information of the person or group making the comment.

If a complaint (as defined within the ABPTRFE Processes and Procedures) is received about a program seeking initial accreditation, the procedures followed for handling the complaint are the same as for handling a complaint about an accredited program.
