Transcript The HLC Self-Study Process

DID YOU KNOW AN HLC SELF-STUDY TEAM WAS
COMING?
November 7 – 9, 2011
ARE YOU AWARE OF HOW THE INSTITUTIONAL
ACCREDITATION PROCESS WORKS?
PEAQ (Program to Evaluate and Advance Quality) employs a five-step comprehensive
evaluation process to determine continued accredited status.
1. The institution engages in a self study process and prepares a report of its findings.
2. The Commission sends an evaluation team of Consultant-Evaluators to conduct a
comprehensive visit for continued accreditation and to write a report containing
the team’s recommendations.
3. The documents relating to the visit are reviewed by a Readers Panel or a Review
Committee.
4. The IAC takes action on the Readers Panel’s recommendation.
5. The Board of Trustees validates the work of IAC or a Review Committee, finalizing
the action.
