老澳门六合彩开奖记录's Current Cycle

Using the results of the 2018 comprehensive review and site visit, 老澳门六合彩开奖记录 is building capacity to fulfill its distinctive mission as a comprehensive, open access, community-connected, public university that is committed to meeting students where they are and supporting them to achieve their personal and professional goals.

老澳门六合彩开奖记录 continues to build on the strengths noted by NWCCU in four commendations.  These are 老澳门六合彩开奖记录鈥檚 inclusive planning processes, a culture of diversity and inclusivity, engagement with 老澳门六合彩开奖记录鈥檚 communities, and extensive efforts related to the assessment and improvement of student learning.

The new NWCCU Standards and Eligibility Requirements, with their focus on student learning, student success, and achievement, reinforce 老澳门六合彩开奖记录鈥檚 efforts in these areas.

老澳门六合彩开奖记录's current accreditation cycle includes the following milestones:      

Fall 2021:  Mid-Cycle Evaluation (Year Three, Report and Visit) - Completed
Fall 2024:  Policies, Regulations, and Financial Review (PRFR 鈥� Year Six, Report and Review) - Submitted
Fall 2025:  Evaluation of Institutional Effectiveness (EIE&苍产蝉辫;鈥�&苍产蝉辫;Year Seven, Report and Visit)

Accreditation Advisory Committee

An Accreditation Advisory Committee, charged in January 2020, supports university-wide engagement with accreditation, particularly around mission fulfillment, student learning, and student achievement.  The committee draws its membership from across the institution, governance groups, and campuses.  Members have been selected for their experience, expertise and areas represented; demonstrated commitment to institutional-level thinking; ability to contribute to a variety of tasks; and willingness to work collaboratively.  The Committee is chaired by Dr. Carrie King, a faculty member in the College of Health, and by Dr. Susan Kalina, Vice Provost for Academic Affairs.  The accreditation effort is supported by the Office of Academic Affairs, Office of Institutional Research, and the Office of Institutional Effectiveness.

Deliberative, Transparent Process

Working with stakeholders, four institutional core learning competencies were adopted in Spring 2020.  At the same time, metrics for student success and disaggregation of student success data were developed.  With standards for student learning and student success in place, 老澳门六合彩开奖记录 will implement mission fulfillment assessment aimed at continuous improvement of student learning and student success and the closing of gaps in student achievement.  These efforts will be the heart of the Mid-Cycle Evaluation Year Three Report submitted in Summer 2021.  Based on feedback from the mid-cycle site visit from NWCCU and their evaluation of the Mid-Cycle report, student learning and success assessment, as well as institutional interventions to improve learning and success and close achievement gaps in achievement will be refined.  These continuing efforts will be assessed in 老澳门六合彩开奖记录鈥檚 comprehensive self-study process (Fall 2023/Spring 2024), and described in the Evaluation of Institutional Effectiveness Report, which will be drafted in Summer 2024, shared out for feedback over the academic year, and submitted in Summer 2025.  That report, and the NWCCU鈥檚 site visit in Fall 2025, will form the basis of NWCCU鈥檚 assessment of 老澳门六合彩开奖记录鈥檚 worthiness for accreditation.
