The Committee on Accreditation for Respiratory Care will recognize the NDSU and MeritCare Respiratory Care program for Excellence in Education during the American Association for Respiratory Care Summer Forum in July at Marco Island, Fla.
In selecting programs for this recognition, the Committee on Accreditation for Respiratory Care used objective criteria based on key accreditation outcomes, including 90 percent or higher registry credentialing success for the most recent three-year graduate cohort as documented in the 2008 annual report and meeting or exceeding thresholds for certified respiratory therapist credentialing success, attrition and job placement.
