contents Handbook of Accreditation and Policy Manual. 1990 Edition. Berg, Ernest H. And Others Accreditation (Institutions) Accrediting Agencies Community Colleges Evaluation Criteria Evaluators Institutional Evaluation Self Evaluation (Groups) Standards Two Year Colleges This four-part handbook, developed by the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC), is intended for use by two-year institutions under review, members of evaluation teams, and others concerned with good practice in two-year institutions. Part I reviews the purposes of accreditation, standards and policies, the college-Commission relationship, accredited status, periodic review, candidate status, review and appeal, alteration of the evaluation schedule, and eligibility criteria for accreditation. Part II describes eight standards for accreditation institutional integrity, educational programs, student services, faculty and staff, library and learning resources, physical resources, financial resources, and governance and administration. Following each standard is a list of supporting documents which might be useful to the institution and the outside evaluation team. Part III describes three types of accreditation policies: (1) testimonial policies developed by the Commission, which define good institutional practices in more detail than the accreditation standards; (2) national policies, which advise postsecondary institutions and accrediting agencies about good practice; and (3) operational policies, which affect the organization and conduct of business of the Commission. Part IV is an appendix which includes a description of accreditation agencies and related organizations, the WASC constitution and appeals procedures, and a glossary of definitions and acronyms.
