STANDARDS FOR EXCELLENCE ACCREDITATION
Do you want to be the standard bearer? Accreditation through the
Oklahoma Center for Nonprofits provides a way for organizations to
demonstrate that they are going beyond the minimum legal
requirements of local, state and federal regulations. It shows that an
organization is committed to raising the level of principled and
responsible practices within the nonprofit sector. Accreditation in
the Standards for Excellence is a model for organizations to
implement throughout their operating plans so they can gain a
deeper understanding of their effectiveness, improve their
decision-making and minimize risks. Nonprofits that adhere to this
model -and become formally accredited under the Standards for
Excellence code-earn the right to display the Seal of Excellence
throughout their organization.
