How To Start The Process
Initiating the accreditation process
Schools desirous of being accredited by the Caribbean Accreditation Authority for Education in Medicine and other Health Professions (CAAM) should write requesting their accreditation to the Secretariat of the Authority. It is unlikely that the accreditation process can be completed in less than a year, therefore requests should be submitted as soon as possible.
Documents to be consulted
- For medical schools in the Caribbean Overseas Territories
The process for the licensing and accreditation for medical schools in the Caribbean Overseas Territories is as set out in the document ‘Caribbean Overseas Territories: Medical School Accreditation Procedure – Reference Note’. This reference note has been issued to territory governments and the Governors' Offices. The reference note outlines the obligations that must be fulfilled by the territory government before a medical school can receive Full Accreditation. The note also sets out the accreditation process for new and prospective medical schools.
