Florida’s public universities will now permit the Classic Learning Test in admissions, offering a conservative-backed alternative to the SAT and ACT. Florida is now the first state university system in the country to allow for the Classic Learning Test (CLT), which has gained recent popularity among the state’s Christian and charter schools.
The classical education model — not to be confused with “classics” or “classical humanities” — focuses on a return to “core values” and the “centrality of the Western tradition.” The Florida state university system’s board of governors on Friday approved the test for use in undergraduate admissions.
Is it really? I’m only familiar with ABET, which is national, but only for engineering and technology. I figured other subjects would have similar accreditation boards. Surely some other fields like medical and law do?
The schools institutional accreditation is different from program accreditation.
Does institutional accreditation matter in the face of program accreditation?
You probably don’t have one without the other and marginal institutional accreditation used to be the hallmark of online scam schools. But I don’t know, I’m not a universityologist.
