Must have Experience with DEAC & WASC Accreditation.

The Accreditation Liaison Officer’s responsibilities are to:
1. In close collaboration with the CEO, develop the campus organization and preparation for, and the successful conduct of, accreditation reviews for both comprehensive and any follow-on reviews required by the Commission.

2. Serve as the primary resource person for all accreditation matters, particularly for the Institutional Self-Evaluation Report (ISER) for comprehensive reviews, including working with faculty groups, institutional researchers, student service personnel, and others to ensure the preparation of a thorough and accurate report. This will require an intimate knowledge of the ACCJC Standards, Eligibility Requirements, and policies.

3. Work with the site visit team chair, assistant chair, and Commission staff to develop the visit schedule and in other ways ensure that the peer review experience is well organized and can achieve its intended purposes.

4. Serve as the communications channel between the Commission office and the institution, expecting – for example – that questions to the Commission about accreditation matters are expressed through the ALO and that communication from the Commission to the institution are received and distributed by the ALO to the appropriate college constituencies. In this way, the ALO is kept current on all accreditation-related interactions.

5. Provide the institutional locations – both virtual and actual – for keeping accreditation records, manuals, correspondence, prior reports and Commission action letters, and related materials needed for interpreting and applying ACCJC Standards, policies, and processes. The ALO also ensures that all relevant stakeholders are aware of and have access to this information and
that it is preserved for future use.

6. Work with the CEO and other leaders to ensure a timely and insightful response to any Commission actions requiring the institution to come into compliance with ACCJC Standards.

To become effective in this challenging role, the ALO will want to:

• Be familiar with the resources of the Commission, primarily through its website, its online training videos, and also by becoming acquainted with key staff.
• Obtain or download a copy of the Accreditation Reference Handbook and become familiar with its basic contents, especially its Standards, Eligibility Requirements, and Policies sections.
• Be familiar with the institution’s accreditation history with a particular focus on any recommendations from recent reviews and any compliance issues that have recurred over time.
• Stay informed on the national conversations about accreditation through sources such as the Chronicle of Higher Education, the daily online Inside Higher Ed, and special communications from the ACCJC office.
