IAC accreditation is granted for a three-year period from the original date of decision. Facilities originally delayed accreditation experience a shorter than three-year accreditation period, dependent upon the amount of time expended to submit additionally required material for review and subsequently earn accreditation. The expiration date can be verified by referencing the printed certificates or accreditation letter received by the facility, by viewing the listing of accredited facilities published on the website or by contacting the staff.

The IAC accreditation application is identical for both first-time applicants and those applying for reaccreditation. All applicant facilities utilize the Online Accreditation application to prepare and submit their applications to the IAC. This application format serves as a repository for accreditation data, allowing facility personnel to access previously submitted information and make updates at any time during the three-year cycle. The efficiency provided by this format is a great enhancement to the accreditation process.
