NJSIAA Compliance Monitoring Program (Currently Suspended

The compliance monitoring program’s main emphasis is supporting all member school’s athletic directors and to increase member schools' compliance with association regulations, enhance direct communication with schools, and help mentor new athletic directors.  At the core of the program is a comprehensive annual schedule of visits by NJSIAA representatives. 

The program will involve NJSIAA representatives visiting the athletic directors at all the association's member schools on a revolving, five-year cycle. The initiative will supplement ongoing self-assessment by athletic directors, emphasizing that schools are in line with the association's constitution and bylaws; mentoring of newly-appointed athletic directors; making professional development recommendations; and expanding communication channels between schools and the association.

Member schools may be visited multiple times within the five-year period if there is a corrective action plan in place to increase the number of visits.  All schools with new Athletic Directors will be visited the first two years then they will go on the five-year rotation.

The visits will be conducted by designated NJSIAA representatives, who will be selected specifically for the program.  It is anticipated that many, if not all of those conducting the visits will be former athletic directors.
