Establishing a set of standards that draw the accreditation borders too tightly around preparation programs is a real danger for the development of education. Only dormant programs contain no anomalies, no ambiguities, or contradictions. Good preparation programs will undoubtedly reflect uncertainty, as well as internal inconsistencies, if they are vibrant and rigorous for the development and application of new knowledge.
