AILA is seeking academics, practitioners and students to assist with the 2022 university accreditation reviews.

- Deakin University: 19-21 July
- University of Melbourne (UoM): 16-18 August

How is a review completed?
The reviews are undertaken by AILA’s National Accreditation Review Team (NART). Each University is assigned an individual NART, comprising five NART members - 2 x LA academics, 2 x LA practitioners and 1 x LA student.
The NART assesses a LA Program against seven AILA accreditation standards.
Each review is conducted virtually, held across 3 days, with appropriate breaks during the day to minimise virtual meeting fatigue:
- Day 1: 12.30pm – 6.00pm AEST
- Day 2: 10.00am – 6.00pm AEST
- Day 3: 10.00am – 2.30pm AEST.
Prior to a review, AILA meets with the NART to discuss the process, answer questions, and assign tasks.
