Stritch - Central Curricular Authority (CCA)

Chair's Welcome

The Stritch School of Medicine Central Curricular Authority (CCA) was established in 1993 to help represent the faculty to the Dean on curricular matters.

Today there are six CCA subcommittees: Competency Evaluation and Assessment Review Committee; Curricular Innovation and Technology in Education; Evaluation; Curricular Year Directors; Health Equity in the Curriculum; and Longitudinal Outcomes. The subcommittee members deliberate curricular matters related to their charges and provide recommendations to the CCA. The CCA works collaboratively with faculty, staff, physicians-in-training, administrators, and deans to provide curriculum oversight and recommendations to the Stritch Dean.  

This website supports the CCA in its responsibility for assuring the design, management, integration, evaluation, and continuous quality improvement of a coherent and coordinated medical curriculum. Materials on this site also support the CCA’s work of ongoing monitoring, in compliance with Liaison Committee on Medical Education accreditation standards related to curriculum.

Sincerely,

Theresa Kristopaitis, MD, FACP
Chair, Central Curricular Authority
