This user is the primary contact for your program's eAccreditation submission. Note that only the association can change the Program Director at each program.

Managing Users

You can manage your user's account under the Status column. Note that you cannot delete users because their input and activity in eAccreditation are an important record of the accreditation process. Instead, you can select Disabled; the user cannot log in to eAccreditation but any work they completed in eAccreditation will remain.
