AQIP Quality Checkup visit
April 28, 2008 | Editor
Congratulations to all who prepared for and participated in the AQIP site visit completed last week. Our visitors’ comments were overwhelmingly positive thanks to the enthusiasm and seriousness with which the MATC community has embraced the AQIP continuous improvement model.
The next step in the reaffirmation of our accreditation will be a written report for the Higher Learning Commission prepared by the visit team sometime over the summer and we anticipate the Commission will make a decision by the end of the summer.
