Chapter Management Program Recognition The Chapter Management Program (CMP) is divided into three achievement levels: Accredited Chapter, Chapter of Recognition and Chapter of Excellence. The CMP allows chapter members, national leaders and staff to evaluate chapter operations and activities. Chapters are required to submit items to the National Fraternity to achieve each level and are expected to reach the Accredited Chapter level which includes the minimum standards for every collegiate chapter. If all requirements for Accredited Chapter are completed, the chapter may try to achieve the second level, Chapter of Recognition, and then the third level, Chapter of Excellence. Congratulations to the 32 chapters that reached Chapter of Excellence, 43 chapters reaching Chapter of Recognition and 86 that earned the Accredited Chapter in 2011-2012!

A Chapter of Excellence is a chapter that is operationally sound with a well-rounded program focusing on larger scale events and national Fraternity promotion.
