Assurance
of Program Integrity
In
order to recognize AVID sites on an annual basis after the
implementation year, and to ensure program integrity and implementation
of AVID Program Implementation Essentials, an annual certification
process was developed in the fall of 1996 by the AVID Center
in San Diego.
To use the AVID trade name, trademark, and logo, each school
must agree to annual participation in the certification process
and must be recognized as an Affiliate, Certified, or Distinguished
AVID School.
The
AVID Certification process has many benefits:
- Opportunity
for self-study and monitoring of program implementation
and student progress;
- Recognition
as a Certified AVID School if AVID Program Implementation
Essentials are met;
- The
ability to use AVID name to secure grants and awards;
- Support
from regional staff to enhance implementation of AVID Program
Implementation Essentials;
- Access
to comparative data that profiles the site’s AVID Program;
- Recognition
annually of Certified AVID Schools and exemplary programs;
- Assurance
of AVID Program integrity.
