Evidence of Compliance:

The Department of Recreation and Leisure Studies maintains a clear and visible practice of informing the public about its accreditation status. On the department homepage, it states:

“National accreditation of the program has been awarded continuously since 1982. The Council on Accreditation of Parks, Recreation, Tourism and Related Professions (COAPRT) accredits recreation, park resources and leisure services curricula. Our department offers the only academic program accredited by COAPRT in Southern California .”

This statement is publicly accessible, prominently positioned, and includes a link for users to learn more about academic accreditation. It ensures that prospective students, families, employers, and other stakeholders are fully informed of the program’s accredited status.
