Are You Ready For a Site Visit?

It is extremely important that the out-of-school care service ensures that all of their self-study documents are complete and copies are available for collection and validation as requested.  The OSC program is responsible for the thoroughness of the self- study documents and completion of the Self-study Guide.   

You want to be sure that you are ready when you request a site visit for many reasons. Once your site visit has been confirmed you cannot cancel the visit without adequate notice. Requesting a site visit before you are ready can result in accreditation status being denied.  The onus is on the out-of-school care service to have all of their evidence organized and available for the site visit. These items need to be completed before requesting a site visit:

• Completed Surveys
• Completed Policies and Documents Lists
• Completed Observation Checklists
• Completed QEP
• All Consent Forms
• Completed Site Visit Request Form

Remember that you must be substantially meeting all five standards to achieve accreditation.
