It establishes standards for such programs, accredits programs that demonstrate that they meet these standards, and monitors accredited programs to ensure that they continue to meet the standards.<\/p>\n<p>CAPACS was established in 1995 as a joint initiative of the Society for Applied Sociology (SAS) and the Sociological Practice Association (SPA). Its purpose is to develop, promote, and support quality sociological education and practice through the accreditation of programs in sociological practice (applied sociology, clinical sociology, engaged public sociology, translational sociology, and forensic sociology). In addition, students must have a meaningful practice experience, such as an internship. Formerly known as the Commission on Applied and Clinical Sociology (CACS), the organization changed its name in 2010 to more accurately convey its focus and work.&#8221; (Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/capacs.net\/about_comm.shtml\">https:\/\/capacs.net\/about_comm.shtml)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Useful CAPACS Web Pages on the CAPACS Website<\/h3>\n<p>Below are useful links to relevant web pages on the <a href=\"https:\/\/capacs.net\/index.shtml\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-auth=\"NotApplicable\" data-linkindex=\"2\">CAPACS website<\/a> featuring the Commission\u2019s resources, documents, and programs.<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>The Commission\u2019s welcome letter to international programs can be accessed on CAPACS <a href=\"https:\/\/capacs.net\/int_prog.shtml\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-auth=\"NotApplicable\" data-linkindex=\"6\">International Programs<\/a> web page at: <a href=\"https:\/\/capacs.net\/int_prog.shtml\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-auth=\"NotApplicable\" data-linkindex=\"7\">https:\/\/capacs.net\/int_prog.shtml<\/a>.
