The Reviews
Off-Site Review
In Fall 2008 a SACS Off-Site Peer Review Committee, composed of eight to ten evaluators, will meet and review the Compliance Certifications of a group of institutions (including Regent) to determine whether we are in compliance with all Core Requirements (except Core Requirement 2.12), Comprehensive Standards, and Federal Requirements. The group of institutions evaluated, called a cluster, normally consists of no more than four similar institutions. At the conclusion of the review, the Off-Site Peer Review Committee will prepare a separate report for each institution, recording and explaining its decisions regarding compliance. The report is forwarded to our On-Site Review Committee which makes its final determination on compliance.
On-Site Review March 3 to 5, 2009
Following review by the Off-Site Committee, an On-Site Review Committee of peers will conduct a focused evaluation at the campus to finalize issues of compliance with the Core Requirements, Comprehensive Standards, and Federal Requirements; provide consultation regarding the issues addressed in the QEP; and evaluate the acceptability of the QEP. At the conclusion of its visit, the On-Site Review Committee will prepare the Report of the Reaffirmation Committee, a written report of its findings noting areas of non-compliance, including the acceptability of the QEP. The Report of the Reaffirmation Committee, along with our response to any areas of non-compliance, will be forwarded to the Commission for review and action.
