TISOH Administrator Appointed Committee Chair at Accreditation Agency

Donnell G. Bayot, Ph.D. CHE CPCE CFBE, Director of Academic Affairs at  TISOH: The International School of Hospitality, was appointed Chair of the Completion & Placement Committee for ACCET, the Accrediting Council for Continuing Education and Training, at its August 2019 commission meeting.

The Accrediting Council for Continuing Education & Training (ACCET) is a voluntary group of educational organizations affiliated for the purpose of improving continuing education and training. Through its support of an independent Accrediting Commission, the ACCET membership promulgates and sustains the Standards for Accreditation along with policies and procedures that measure and ensure educational standards of quality. ACCET is recognized for this purpose by the U.S. Secretary of Education and, accordingly, is listed by the U.S. Department of Education as a nationally recognized accrediting agency.

Bayot currently is serving his second term as a Commissioner for ACCET. In his additional role as Completion and Placement Committee Chair, he will lead his committee to ensure the value and effectiveness of ACCET accreditation by overseeing the assessment, documentation, and validation of the quality of the training services provided by member institutions, through completion rates, sponsor and student/graduate satisfaction, and, for vocational institutions, job placement rates.

“TISOH has been accredited by ACCET since 2012. We are proud of our association with this agency that is dedicated to a partnership in quality. Dr. Bayot’s involvement with ACCET brings to our institution rich insight and knowledge that we can use to in turn benefit our students.” said Timothy Lam, Executive Director of TISOH.
