Abstract:
Executive Order 13607, Establishing Principles of Excellence for Educational Institutions Serving Service Members, Veterans, Spouses, and Other Family Members, requires the establishment of a centralized complaint system for VA, DOD, and Department of Education. The purpose of the complaint system is to provide a standardized method for beneficiaries and others to submit a complaint or allegation that an entity or individual has not or may not have adhered to the principles of excellence established in the Executive Order. The Complaint Intake System will enable VA to identify the entity or individual not in compliance with the Principles of Excellence and to assess the complaints of noncompliance. Assessment of compliance will include identifying areas we can improve to ensure adherence to the Principles of Excellence.
