The focus of the VECAP Standards Committee is on the development of professional standards and statements related to the interests, mission and purpose of VECAP. Two standing committees exist within the organizational umbrella of the Standards Committee: the Ethics Committee and the Bylaws Committee. Chaired by the Standards Coordinator, these standing committees advise the VECAP Executive Council regarding the organization’s Code of Ethics and the Bylaws. An important function of the Standards Committee is the ongoing review of professional training and practice standards. Under the direction of the Executive Council, ad hoc Standards Committees are convened to formulate recommendations regarding quality standards in the training, education, practice and ethical conduct of vocational evaluation and assessment professionals. VECAP has a long rich history of collaborative professional standard setting activities. VECAP continues to be part of a national interdisciplinary coalition (ICVEA) which provides a unified voice regarding responsible best practices and professional standards in vocational evaluation and assessment. Currently, VECAP is involved in the development of an interdisciplinary position paper which defines and clarifies the term Functional Vocational Evaluation (FVE) as it applies to the legislation on Transition Assessment. VECAP has representation on the Council on Rehabilitation Education’s (CORE) Commission on Standards and Accreditation which evaluates graduate level rehabilitation counselor programs for compliance to CORE accreditation standards.
