The Council of Academic Deans from Research Education
Institutions (CADREI), believe our institutional responsibilities rest on four premises:
• Equitable access to high quality education is the cornerstone of a just society;
• The survival of a free society depends on the effectiveness of its education system;
• Education is essential to the enhancement of professional preparation;
• The educational profession requires the development of effective partnerships with those we serve.
Accordingly, CADREI commits itself to:
• High standards of student selection and professional preparation;
• The conduct of inquiry and scholarship on learning, teaching, education, and related areas;
• The improvement of instruction in professional education programs;
• Enhancement of institutional capacity for research and dissemination;
• The application of the results of scholarship in all professional preparation
and service programs;
• The improvement of education through efforts to influence policy and develop
collaborative relationships with others.
