Accreditation has two fundamental purposes: to assure the
quality of the institution and to encourage institutional improvement.
Colleges follow a six-year accreditation cycle during which institutional
review is continuous. There were
substantive changes made by the Accrediting Commission resulting in
The 2002 Standards of Accreditation.
These new standards require institutions to define expected student
learning outcomes and assess them in order to improve learning at the course,
program, and degree or institutional level and changes to the institution
designed to improve learning.
