ASDN would like to reassure you that the Board of Regent’s decision regarding the dissolution of several UAA initial licensure programs does NOT affect the validity or sustainability of the ASDN 500-level professional development courses. The 500-level offerings through the University of Alaska’s PACE office are validated by the University’s accreditation with the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU) and continue to be facilitated through the Professional and Continuing Education (PACE) Office.
