PURPOSE AND VALUE Like individuals, every man-made organization is made stronger through regular acts of retrospection and reflection. Assuring the quality of more than 900 colleges and schools across the US and internationally generates an intensity of activity that is not always conducive to sustained, deliberate contemplation of organizational purpose and values. The occasion of re-recognition, however, requires nothing less. In 2014, the Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools (ACICS) began preparing for another cycle of review with entities that grant the Council its authority to assure the quality and integrity of private, independent colleges and schools. They are the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) and the Accreditation and State Liaison Division (ASL) of the US Department of Education. ACICS’s recognition with CHEA expires December 2015, and the Department’s recognition expires December 2016. Partially in anticipation of the re-recognition cycle but mostly to continue to connect with core principles, the Council initiated and completed a strategic planning process in 2014 that produced stronger focus and clarity on that which is most important: students enrolled at member institutions. Among other outcomes, the Council developed and published a new “values” statement that reads, “ACICS is committed to the importance of a quality educational experience for all students.” Simply stated, the Council emphasizes the elements of the accreditation process that most directly and immediately impact the experience of current students in a positive manner. ACICS’s standards, program of quality assurance, governance structure, review process, and other factors have withstood sustained scrutiny in recent years, as have many member institutions. It is noble to pursue the transformation of the quality assurance discipline in the name of greater transparency, higher returns for student investment, better student achievement, and clearer consumer information. Measuring incremental, institutional progress toward these abstract outcomes, however, requires great patience and a high tolerance for ambiguity.

The working adults who enroll at ACICS member institutions are typically in pursuit of something more tangible and immediate than abstractions or lofty ideals. Their enterprise is tightly focused on completion and gaining access to economic opportunity. They may not be able to define quality in the esoteric and nuanced terms of the accreditation community, but they know quality when they encounter it; they recognize integrity when it is manifest; and they value student-centric education when it delivers on the promise of creating access to economic opportunity. ACICS will have the opportunity to defend its contribution to “higher education in the public interest” during the re-recognition cycle. Those granting authority will want to know how ACICS’s institutional purpose serves the public interest, and how its operations and actions protect and advance the quality, value, and defensibility of higher education in general. In 2014, ACICS’s introspection placed those expectations on solid footing: the knowledge and deliberate consideration of the interests of students and the quality of their educational experience. That solid ground provides stability for the accreditation enterprise every day, during every campus visit and every Council meeting. It is a high ground, indeed.

ACHIEVE INVEN MENTTORY Providing quality assurance that preserves the best and immediate interests of today’s students requires an interest and knowledge of the students themselves: their life circumstances, their aspirations, their strengths, and their areas of greatest need. ACICS continues to acquire and analyze empirical information to inform the way it reviews and assures quality on their behalf.

Unlike newly minted graduates from college prep high schools (counted in the federal post-secondary education database as “full-time, first time” students), students enrolled at ACICS colleges and schools are typically part-time students, many of whom have attempted post-sec-

ondary education in the past. In addition, many are independent from parental financial support, 25 years old or older, have dependent children, and come from homes where neither parent has attained a bachelor’s degree. Also, most are also Pell grant eligible. (Source: IPEDS)

A substantial portion (nearly 60 %) of the students live and attend college outside of major metropolitan areas; their access to economic opportunity and post-secondary education is more limited than is expected for young adults living in a coastal urban center; and their needs are derived from the geography and communities where they live and raise their families (See Table 1).

Competency-Based Education Based on this insight and the expectation that adult learners have acquired knowledge through a variety of sources and experiences that may not directly reflect classroom instruction, member institutions are actively seeking new and more relevant ways to measure and evaluate the competencies of their students. Specifically, learning that cannot be measured in clock hours or credit hours is still a valid achievement that deserves recognition and support from funding sources and the quality assurance community. In 2014, with guidance and interaction with the Department of Education, ACICS brought forward a comprehensive set of standards for the direct assessment of competency-based programs.

The Department’s examples of direct measures of competencies include “projects, papers, examinations, presentations, performances, and portfolios.” Among multiple requirements, an institution’s delivery of competency-based education is eligible for Federal Student Financial Aid (FSA – Title IV) participation if: • The institution successfully submits an application to the FSA division for specific programs; and • The programs are reviewed by a recognized accrediting body to ascertain their quality and educational equivalence in clockhours or credit-hours.

After vetting the draft standards and implementation plans with the Department, The Department’s guidance describes ACICS shared the proposed policy with competency based education as the membership, solicited feedback from the field, and made revisions and “new and creative program models adjustments. The Council adopted the in which students are provided with provisions as Section 3-1-504 and Section the means to acquire the knowlI of Appendix H, ACICS Accreditation edge and skills at an individual Criteria. pace to demonstrate achievement of specific competencies identified as necessary to complete a program and earn a degree or other credential.”(ED.GOV DCL ID GEN-13-10; March 2013)

Quality in International Education Colleges and schools serving international students at locations overseas have been accredited by ACICS for decades. From Western Europe through Southeast Asia, the demand for quality assurance under the ACICS banner has expanded the agency’s geographic footprint well beyond North America. In 2014, the demand for US-based accreditation review of international institutions offering professional, technical and occupational programs continued to grow. ACICS now accredits 16 international institutions; institutions in Italy, Malaysia, Albania, and Jamaica have applied for initial accreditation and will be reviewed through site visits in the near future. In aggregate, internationally-based ACICS colleges and schools now serve more than 20,500 students enrolled in campuses spanning Africa, Scandinavia, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, Southeast Asia, the Caribbean, Central America, and South America. More than 80% of the students are enrolled in programs at the bachelor’s degree level or above, including more than 60% in master’s degree programs.

applicable standards and policies in 2014. One category of standards is those that apply to partnerships with international institutions, either through formal agreements or through the placement of US students in “study abroad” activities. An important milestone in the development of quality assurance protocols for international and study abroad programs was the establishment of a formal relationship with the Forum on Education Abroad (www.forumea.org), an independent authority on the quality and integrity of study abroad programs. The Forum’s membership includes hundreds of the world’s most prestigious and long-established colleges and universities. For ACICS institutions offering study abroad programs, the expectation is that the activity be reviewed by the Forum and the report submitted to ACICS. The Council will use the findings of the Forum to determine if the study abroad activity meets or falls short of ACICS standards.

The standards for study abroad activities, including the new requirement of review by the Forum, were shared with the field and adopted by Council as Appendix J of In response to the demand and in rec- the ACICS Accreditation Criteria. ognition of the opportunity to support institutional effectiveness on an international basis, the Council revisited

Formation of Public Policy Election-year politics at the state and federal level temporarily drew attention away from post-secondary education issues and controversy during 2014. However, on-going demands for greater accountability and transparency, and new ways to measure institutional effectiveness, created opportunities to explain and defend the value of self-governed, peer-reviewed accreditation. ACICS provided information and perspective on a variety of topics through formal, written communications and white papers. The topics were varied and the venues diverse, but they included perspective on the new Gainful Employment regulations and the overlap and conflicts with accreditation standards and peer-based review of institutional effectiveness; and the metrics integral to the new College Ratings System announced by the White House that are designed to supplement information used by students in making enrollment decisions.

Fits None: The Skills Gap and America’s On-Going Workforce Development Challenges, inventories some of the structural and episodic sources of unemployment and underemployment at the time of the reauthorization of the Workforce Investment Act (WIA). It discusses how many major employers are vexed by a lack of trained and capable workers, and the back-to-work initiative falls short in areas of accountability and relevance to contemporary workforce needs. Many ACICS schools provide training programs that are partially funded through WIA resources.

The second, Notwithstanding Title IV Eligibility: The Enduring and Ubiquitous Value of Institutional Accreditation, discusses at length the value of accreditation and peer-based quality assurance beyond the role as “gatekeeper” to federal student financial aid. The whitepaper, in part, responds to recommendations from Capitol Hill, some in the Department of Education, and others in the accreditation ACICS published two substantial whitepa- community that suggest accreditation and pers on contemporary issues confronting the Title IV gatekeeper functions should member institutions.

ACICS Historic Archives In the wake of celebrating its Centennial in 2012, ACICS curated and documented its historic archives and made the digital manifestations available to the public for the first time in 2014 through the launch of the ACICS Historical Archives: 100+ Years of Quality Assurance. The history of ACICS and its predecessor organizations, spanning more than 100 years, directly illustrates the impetus for self-governance and voluntary quality assurance that came from the owners and operators of private career colleges and schools who founded the organization in Chicago in 1912. The nine collections of the ACICS Historical Archives, consisting of more than 20,000 pages, include periodicals as far back as 1921, monographs, annual reports and key operating statistics, published membership directories, official accreditation standards, manuscript school accreditation records, historic photographs, and a wide array of official historic documents. With the rich history of the ACICS community available online, history researchers and interested parties can better avail themselves of the deep and enduring context that validates the private, independent colleges and schools serving post-secondary students today.
