Strengths and Weaknesses

DOE-STD-1077-94

G. Strengths and Weaknesses

In this section, describe what the team found. On an overall program level, discuss its

strengths and weaknesses. These comments should be more global in nature than the

individual responses to the Objectives and Criteria. Be direct and avoid

"whitewashing" issues. It is better for the facility to openly identify weaknesses than

have the Accreditation Review Team find them.

If there are strengths, take credit for them. However, exercise caution that what is

identified as a strength really is. Merely meeting a requirement should not be

considered a strength.
