The Board of the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (CCNE) granted the BSN and MSN degree programs of the AUB School of Nursing (SON) unconditional accreditation for a five-year term effective on October 13, 2007, making them the first CCNE accredited nursing programs outside the United States.
The culmination of an international peer assessment, the accreditation attests to the fact that the two programs meet all international professional standards essential for nursing education at the undergraduate and graduate levels.
According to the director of SON, Huda Abu-Saad Huijer, "The accreditation process was important for us in many ways. Its value is as significant internally for quality improvement as it is for obtaining the accreditation.
