OAR 584-400-0055
Denial of Approval of Unit and Programs


(1) Whenever any Educator Preparation Provider (EPP) or educator preparation program is denied approved status or has such status withdrawn, the denial or withdrawal must be treated as a contested case under ORS chapter 183. However, in an effort to adjudicate the matter short of a formal hearing, the Commission will inform the EPP of:
(a) The Commission’s intent to deny approval before taking formal action; and
(b) The time and place the matter will come before the Commission and make provisions in the agenda for institutional representatives to address the Commission.
(2) Should the EPP not accept Commission denial of approval, the EPP may request a contested case hearing pursuant to ORS Chapter 183 (Administrative Procedures Act).
(3) Unless the decision of the Commission is accompanied by a finding that immediate withdrawal of approval is necessary to protect the safety and well-being of students in the EPP’s programs, an appeal in a proceeding to withdraw approval shall operate as a stay of the Commission’s determination to deny or withdraw approval until final determination of the appeal.
