EAB provided ICACIT with a first draft of the governance documents and structure of ICACIT

A second training workshop for program evaluators was held in Arequipa, Peru in December. All training materials were prepared and delivered in Spanish.

EAB is working with ICACIT to provide final versions of their accreditation manuals in Engineering, Technology and Computing. ICACIT will appoint 20 Program Evaluators and staff their accreditation committees prior to having their first series of independent accreditation visits.
