    From a DETC bulletin here:
    http://detc.org/downloads/bulletins/...20Approved.pdf

    "The Distance Education and Training Council is pleased to announce that, at its public session on Sept 21st, the Council of Higher Education Accreditation Board of Directors voted to approve a formal request for a change of scope for DETC to include professional doctoral degrees. This action by CHEA brings the DETC's Federally-recognized scope in consonance with its CHEA-recognized scope. The U.S. Secretary of Education recognized DETC's work in the professional doctoral degree area in 2007."
