SUMMARY:2026 Spring Virtual CAEPCon
DESCRIPTION:We will host the 2026 Spring Virtual CAEPCon March 30-31\, a two-day learning experience focused on accreditation as continuous improvement. The conference emphasizes practical\, evidence-informed\, and technology- and AI-aware approaches to educator preparation\, supporting programs as they strengthen assessment\, data use\, clinical partnerships\, program impact\, and quality assurance systems. \nDAY 1 — ASSESSMENT\, DATA & PARTNERSHIPS \n11:00–12:50pm Workshop 1 (NOVICE): Designing and Validating Key Assessments that Produce Meaningful Data \n\nStandards: R1\, R3 | RA1\, RA3\nDescription: This workshop introduces foundational principles for designing strong assessments aligned to CAEP expectations. Participants will examine rubric quality\, fundamental validity and reliability concepts\, and practical strategies for small-n programs in both Initial and Advanced contexts.\n\n1:00–2:50pm Workshop 2 (NOVICE): Using and Documenting Data and Evidence for Improvement \n\nStandards: R1–R5 | RA1–RA5\nDescription: Participants will learn to organize\, display\, and interpret data using CAEP-aligned dashboards and templates\, with an emphasis on translating results into documented improvement actions that support continuous improvement.\n\n3:00–4:50pm Workshop 3 (Experienced): Thinking Like a Reviewer: Calibration\, Reliability\, and Evidence Interpretation \n\nStandards: R1\, R3 | RA1\, RA3\nDescription: This advanced session focuses on how CAEP reviewers evaluate assessment evidence. Participants will engage in calibration exercises\, examine reliability arguments\, and analyze common red flags that weaken assessment claims.\n\n\nDAY 2 — PARTNERSHIPS\, IMPACT & SYSTEM SUSTAINABILITY \n11:00–12:50 Workshop 4 (Novice): Evaluating Clinical Partnerships and Candidate Support Systems \n\nStandards: R2 | RA2\nDescription: This session examines how reviewers evaluate evidence of co-constructed clinical partnerships and candidate support systems. Participants will analyze mentor effectiveness tools and partnership documentation for both the Initial and Advanced programs.\n\n1:00–2:50pm Workshop 5 (Experienced): Understanding Program Impact and Completer Effectiveness \n\nStandards: R4 | RA4\nDescription: Participants will learn what constitutes credible evidence of program impact\, including P–12 outcomes\, professional practice indicators\, and survey data. Special attention is given to small-n strategies and avoiding over-claims.\n\n3:00–4:50pm Workshop 6 (ALL): Operationalizing Continuous Improvement and Quality Assurance Systems (QAS) \n\nStandards: R5 | RA5\nDescription: This capstone session focuses on building sustainable Quality Assurance Systems that integrate evidence across standards and support ongoing improvement for both Initial and Advanced programs.\n\nRegistration is now open!
