- 02
Why is transparency & forthrightness from institutions so critical to the accreditation process & how do commissioners review 50 to 300 pages per case to drill down into underlying issues rather than just superficial problems?

How are peer commissioners who work at colleges & universities themselves able to help institutions improve by sharing the same challenges they face while contributing boundless energy to 1 of the most highly functioning boards in higher education despite receiving no compensation for their service?
