ABET accreditation shouldn't be a scrambling sprint every 6 years

Too Late to Fix

You don't discover compliance gaps until 6 months before the site visit - when it's too late to collect missing evidence or implement improvements.

Disconnected Documentation

Student outcomes data, continuous improvement evidence, and assessment results scattered across spreadsheets, faculty computers, and filing cabinets.

"Closing the Loop" is Hard

Documenting that you actually used assessment results to improve your program - the most common ABET citation - requires evidence that's difficult to maintain across 6-year cycles.

Continuous ABET compliance monitoring, powered by AI

1

Upload Your Documentation

Self-study reports, assessment data, continuous improvement records - whatever you have.

2

AI Analysis in Minutes

Our AI compares your program against current ABET criteria (General Criteria plus program-specific requirements)

3

Get Your Compliance Dashboard

See exactly what's compliant, what needs attention, and what action to take - with specific criterion references and recommended evidence.

ABET-Approved Approach

ABET explicitly permits programs to use AI-assisted tools for accreditation preparation and continuous improvement documentation. DAL operates within ABET's published AI guidelines - all analysis is verified by program faculty, and AI supports (not replaces) human judgment.

Why I'm building this

Hi, I'm Sean - a software engineer with 20+ years of experience building systems for education and compliance.

I've seen firsthand how ABET accreditation cycles drain valuable time from faculty who should be focusing on teaching students and advancing their research, not wrestling with documentation for continuous improvement reports.

Digital Accreditation Lab exists to give engineering programs continuous visibility into their ABET compliance status - so accreditation becomes a manageable year-round process, not a crisis every 6 years.
