You and your college will remain anonymous. The session will include topics that include but are not limited to: (a) major issues facing colleges during accreditation visits (i.e. Mid-cycle/EIE) and how to prepare for a visit, (b) effectively meeting the 2020
NWCCU standards at your institution and creating a culture of continuous improvement, (c) addressing questions from those of you participating on a peer-evaluation team or interested in doing so, and (d) discussing other topics that come to mind.<br>
