Teacher instructing a student with intellectual disabilities in a classroom. Text reads, "Warner receives $1M grant from the US Department of Education to advance accreditation and quality assurance for postsecondary programs serving students with intellectual disability.;

"Warner's LeChase Hall. Text reads, "The four-year funding supports a national collaboration between Warner and the Inclusive Higher Education Accreditation Council and their new initiative, Advancing Workforce Outcomes Through Postsecondary Program Accreditation. It aims to elevate standards in inclusive higher education by advancing quality assurance, transparency, and workforce outcomes nationwide."

Teacher working with students with intellectual disabilities in a classroom. Text reads, "Inclusive Higher Education Accreditation Council (IHEAC): Launched in 2023 in partnership with the Warner School’s Center for Disability and Education and the Think College National Coordinating Center at UMass Boston, IHEAC is the first — and only — accrediting body dedicated exclusively to inclusive postsecondary certificate programs for students with intellectual disability."

A student with intellectual disabilities participating in a classroom with other students. Text reads, "Responding to a National Need: While more than 350 higher education programs currently serve over 7,000 students with intellectual disability nationwide, only a few hold accreditation or candidacy status. The partnership with Warner will help scale IHEAC’s operations, establish infrastructure, recruit and train peer reviewers, support professional learning, conduct accreditation reviews, and create resources for students and families."
