Accreditation

Arapahoe Community College Accreditation

Arapahoe Community College is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission and a member of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools (NCA/HLC). The accreditation process requires ACC personnel to extensively examine and reevaluate the College’s mission, values, goals and its ability to effectively serve all constituents, especially students.

Although the process usually takes place only once every ten years, the associated work effort remains on-going, and culminates with an Evaluation Visit at ACC by a team of experts from NCA/HLC. ACC strives to continually fulfill its mission with integrity; teaches effectively; assesses student learning; promotes the acquisition, discovery and application of knowledge; engages and serves its various constituents; and prepares for future opportunities and challenges. Accreditation is essential to the College’s continuing ability to provide quality education to its community of students. ACC’s next reaccreditation visit will occur in 2016.
