WHAT IS THE VALUE OF ACCREDITATION TO MORAINE VALLEY COMMUNITY COLLEGE?
Accreditation provides public certification of acceptable institutional quality and defines opportunities and incentives for self-improvement. The process of accreditation provides an opportunity for critical self-analysis leading to improvement in quality, as well as an opportunity for benchmarking, consultation and advice from peers at other institutions. Accreditation is also needed to ensure students are eligible to apply for financial aid and that the institution is eligible to apply for certain grants.
