Program Accreditation
Three of our undergraduate programs are nationally accredited or approved:
BS in Athletic Training BS in Health and Physical Education K-12 BS in Kinesiology (Fitness and Human Performance concentration) The BS in Athletic Training is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE) as an entry-level undergraduate program. This program was the first in Louisiana to receive national accreditation status. The BS in Health and Physical Education is one of many undergraduate programs at Southeastern leading to teacher certification, and our university has a long-standing history of quality teacher education. Southeastern’s teacher education program is nationally accredited by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE). As part of this university-wide accreditation, teacher education degrees must be approved by an NCATE-sponsored “specialized professional association” (SPA). Our NCATE SPA is the National Association for Sport and Physical Education, and the BS in Health and Physical Education is an approved NASPE program. The BS in Kinesiology (Fitness and Human Performance concentration) is approved by the National Strength and Conditioning Association. This professional organization’s Education Recognition Program provides its recognition to programs that meet established criteria in strength and conditioning.
