The College of Education and Human Services is in its fifth decade of service to the region, the state, and the nation and takes pride in the foundation it has laid as an institution and the difference it has made in the lives of our current and former students.

The College of Education and Human Services at Wright State University is one of 39 out of 50 teacher preparation institutions in the state of Ohio accredited by the National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE). Our entire education preparation program has NCATE accreditation and full approval by the Ohio Department of Education.

The Council for the Accreditation of Counseling and Related Educational Programs (CACREP) has accredited our school counseling, and clinical mental health counseling programs. Our Master of Rehabilitation Counseling in severe disabilities and chemical dependency are both accredited by the Council on Rehabilitation Counseling (CORE).

Our Athletic Training Education Program (ATEP) is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE).

These voluntary accreditations assure our current students and our alumni that when reviewed and evaluated by external associations, our programs are considered excellent and are based on the best current available research to guide professional practice.

The College has been proud to be a member of the National Network for Educational Renewal since 1993. The Dean participates on the NNER Governing Council and Executive Committee, and meets monthly with the State University Education Dean’s Council (SUED).
