Regional Reaccreditation Visit
What is a QEP?
A Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) is a univeristy-wide course of action that addresses a well defined and focused topic or issue related to enhancing student learning.
Why do we need a QEP?
Every 10 years, Tuskegee University, along with many other academic instituitions must renew their accreditation by the Southern Association of Colleges and School Commision on Colleges ( SACSCOC). During the week of March 19th, Tuskegee Univeristy is welcoming a team of SAC peer reviewers to our illustriuous campus to assess the uviversity's overall academic and operational effectiveness as part of this reaccreditation process.
