Taken from Preface: The primary audience for this Handbook is organizations affiliated with or seeking affiliation with the Commission. The Handbook provides a useful overview of the Commission as well as basic introductions to the various programs for seeking and reaffirming accreditation. For an organization using PEAQ, the Handbook draws attention to many good and tested practices in self-evaluation and in preparing for and hosting a team visit.

For an organization using AQIP, the Handbook provides a basic outline of the goals and processes of the program. In both cases, the Handbook provides essential information without the instructions and details that are best discussed when organizations are involved in the processes.
