Site Visitor Training Now Open!

We are excited to announce that the 2026 Site Visit Training is now open! The Commission on Peer Review and Accreditation (COPRA) policies require that potential Site Visitors are trained (and returning Site Visitors are current) prior to participating in a Site Visit. Returning Site Visitors are considered current if, within recent years, they have either served on Site Visit Team, participated in a training session or special update session, or served on a relevant accreditation committee. The information and evidence gathered by Site Visit Teams are essential for accrediting Master’s-level public service degree programs. By taking the online Site Visitor Training, you will be preparing to play a critical role in public service education, and to become the eyes and ears of COPRA as a part of the accreditation process.

The 2026 Site Visitor training window is open until June 30, 2026. Interested candidates should email sitevisits@naspaa.org for registration and include their most recent resume and/or CV in the email. For more information about serving as a NASPAA Site Visitor, click here.
