The Accreditation Policies document provides information about the policies used by the Commission in the decision-making process for land trusts seeking first-time accreditation or renewal of accreditation. It also details the policies and procedures related to land trusts’ maintaining accreditation over their term, including the types of organizational changes that require notice to the Commission. It includes the Commission's procedures for confirming compliance, taking disciplinary action, and managing appeals.

These four policies were updated by the Commission in March 2025 and are now in effect.

  • Application Decisions

  • Appeals

  • Compliance Confirmation

  • Disciplinary Action
