The Division I NAAC Top 10 Poll is compiled by calculating the number of NAAC members from each institution within each conference by the number of full time compliance professionals from each institution within each conference.  For example, if Conference X has 40 full time compliance members of which 20 are NAAC members, their calculation would be 20/40 = 50%. 

The conference with the number 1 ranking at year’s end (June 1, 2010) will get an award to be presented at the 2010 NAAC Convention in Anaheim.
