This course supports the SACSCOC Institution Accreditation Liaison (IAL) training session. The contents, activities, and exercises in this course provide IALs with important insight into successfully serving as the point person between the institution and SACSCOC.
The Orientation activities are designed to address the following goals: provide an overview of the role and scope of accreditation within higher education; discuss membership, organization, and decision-making process of the SACSCOC; familiarize Trustees with their roles and responsibilities within SACSCOC; and enhance the Trustee’s capacity to participate effectively and efficiently in the SACSCOC decision-making process. The major focus of the Orientation’s case-study based activity is on the work of the Compliance and Reports (C&R) Committee, standing committee of the SACSCOC Board of Trustees.
This online course will focus on the following aspects: scope of review assigned to Library / Learning Resources peer evaluators; the intent and structure (compliance components) of selected Principles of Accreditation; professional judgment to analytically interpret and apply the Principles; and the characteristics of a valid, clear, and constructive evaluation committee report. Completing this online course helps to prepare you for the workshop and to be a successful peer evaluator. Please refer to the document “SACSCOC Library/Learning Resources Peer Evaluator Orientation: Pre-Workshop Case Review Instructions” (linked below this announcement) for a detailed step-by-step guide on how to proceed in this course.
The New Committee Chair Orientation is a necessary component of the training program that individuals complete prior to chairing a comprehensive or focused peer evaluation committee for the Commission. Prior to the workshop, participants will be provided with an overview of the general expectations and responsibilities of SACSCOC Committee Chairs. During the virtual session, participants will engage in discussion of certain key aspects of the review committee experience as well as “hands-on” activities based on case examples. At the conclusion of the workshop, the Commission hopes to increase participants’ level of knowledge and confidence in serving as an effective peer evaluation Committee Chair.

This online resource
provides several benefits including, but not limited to, letting you know what
your institution should be doing at any point in IDEA, granting you access to
several important resources, and serves as a central point to ask and receive
answers to questions.
The pre-workshop or foundational component involves preparation (typically~8-10 hours) prior to the virtual workshop itself. Part of your pre-workshop assignment involves (1) reviewing selected background materials; (2-3) analyzing two institutional case-studies; and (4) critiquing sample evaluation committee report narratives. The virtual workshop is intended to provide you with opportunities to discuss information learned from the pre-workshop assignments and to calibrate the role of an evaluator on a peer review committee.
