I am pleased to announce that Keiser University College of Chiropractic Medicine (KUCCM) on our West Palm Beach campus has been awarded initial accreditation by the Council on Chiropractic Education (CCE). This accreditation is an important recognition of the quality of education and care provided by the college. It is also a testament to the experience of our faculty and the dedication of our students.
The KU College of Chiropractic Medicine combines classroom learning with an emphasis on contemporary research and hands-on practical experience. It’s an evidence-based program that prepares students with the skills and knowledge they need to care for patients of all ages. At KUCCM, we’ve brought together some of the nation’s top doctors and best technology to offer our students an excellent education and clinical practice.
The accreditation follows a site visit and review of performance indicators such as retention rates, academic support, clinical competency outcomes, student performance, and planning and budgeting processes. The Council conducted deliberations and reached a consensus decision to award initial accreditation to Keiser University’s Doctor of Chiropractic program for a four-year period. Accrediting bodies evaluate educational practices and associated outcomes based on best practices to ensure that graduates are competent to provide high-quality, safe, and effective care for their patients.
Congratulations to the faculty, staff, and students at KUCCM for this notable accomplishment.
