Administrative Capability Institute
NACCOP is proud to announce the launch of the NACCOP Administrative Capability Institute (NACCOP-ACI). The Administrative Capability Institute will consist of eight in-person classes that will be offered as pre-conference workshops during the NACCOP Annual Conference. Classes in the Institute will educate attendees in how to develop checks and balances in a system of internal controls to ensure administrative capability within their institution’s Clery Act compliance programs. The Institute will equip attendees with foundational knowledge that will help attendees develop relevant Clery Act policies and procedures. Each class will address relevant requirements of the law as well as strategies to create, implement, manage, and maintain systems or processes to address those requirements.
Each year, beginning with the 2024 Annual Conference, NACCOP will offer two administrative capability classes as pre-conference sessions. Any eligible employee of a college or university who is attending the annual conference can register for these pre-conference sessions. NOTE: Previous experience and training in Clery Act Compliance will be helpful for attendees who are registering for these sessions.
The inaugural Institute will consist of eight classes that will run from 2024-2027. Attendees of each class will receive a certificate of completion from NACCOP. The certification of completion verifies attendance and can serve as an attendee’s documentation that they have received training in applicable administrative capability concepts.
An optional certification exam can be taken by attendees who complete all NACCOP-ACI classes. Successful completion of the NACCOP-ACI Certification Exam will go beyond verification of attendance and demonstrate the attendee’s competence in key administrative capability concepts addressed in the Institute. Passing the NACCOP-ACI Certification Exam will result in attainment of the Administrative Capability Certification through NACCOP.
Participants in the NACCOP-ACI can enroll in a single class, all classes, or any combination of classes. Classes may be completed in any order but will be offered in the sequence outlined below. While there are no prerequisites, attendance at Session #1 is strongly encouraged since it will provide a deep dive into the concept of administrative capability generally, whereas subsequent sessions focus on how to practically apply these concepts to specific facets of Clery compliance.
