WHAT ARE THE STEPS FOR ASSEMBLING THE SELF-STUDY?

Once you've written your narratives and gathered your evidence, you can begin to assemble your Self-Study. There are four documents in the Related Files that you will need to complete this process.

• Electronic Self-Study Instructions: The instructions provide a step-by-step guide for completing an electronic self-study.
• Electronic Self-Study Table of Contents: This is an Excel document that contains a list of all of the standards and related evidence that must be submitted to demonstrate implementation.
• Executive Verification: The Executive Verification is a signed document which the agency submits verifying that the self-study is complete and accurate.
• NA List - 8th Ed. Public: The NA List can be used in your agency's self-study to show which NAs are applicable to your agency.
• READ ME FIRST document: This Word document contains contact information for the agency and a summary of anything that is unique about the assembly or contents of the self-study. The READ ME FIRST document should be completed once the self-study is finalized and then placed on the CD-ROM or USB/jump drive.
