Abstract Professional standards and guidelines are of special value in the area of academic preparation, for it is in this arena that the seeds of professional practice are initially planted. It is essential that those who aspire to become professional student affairs practitioners and educators receive the best preparation possible. Preparation standards are the essential foundation for quality education, and it is important that professionals know and understand how to apply standards to the educational process.
