The CSSR and On-Site Review

• Accredited programs (other than Initial Accreditation) are required to undergo a two-part comprehensive evaluation that includes 1) a written Continuing Accreditation Self Study Report (CSSR) and 2) an on-site review.
  
  Complete the CSSR form.
  
  
• The CoAEMSP Executive Office will notify accredited programs of the due date for submission of the CSSR.
  
• Upon completion of the comprehensive evaluation, the CoAEMSP formulates a status of public recognition recommendation that is forwarded to CAAHEP, which awards the accreditation for Paramedic programs that meet the Standards.

NOTE: Download and save the CSSR file to your computer, close the web site, then open the saved CSSR file from your computer. Do NOT work on the web version directly (it will not save your work).

NEED HELP? For additional information or assistance with the CSSR format, contact: Bill Goding at bill@coaemsp.org or 214.703.8445 Ext 113.
