Board grants full accreditation to Northeast Technology Center after hybrid review
Summary
After a hybrid accreditation review Oct. 24–26, 2023, examiners found no areas of noncompliance and recommended full accreditation for Northeast Technology Center; the board approved the recommendation by roll call.
The board voted to grant full accreditation to Northeast Technology Center following a hybrid accreditation review conducted Oct. 24–26, 2023.
Chief of staff Dr. Lockwood said the examiner team (33 examiners including 23 from technology centers and agency staff) reviewed the center’s application, interviewed 21 stakeholders, completed technical visits for financial aid and safety, and observed program areas. The review used agency quality standards listed in the department’s accreditation guidelines.
Examiners reported no areas of noncompliance and recommended the board grant full accreditation; the board moved, seconded and approved the recommendation on a roll-call vote. The accreditation award requires the technology center to submit an action plan within 90 days addressing one opportunity for improvement identified for each of the six quality standards; agency staff will monitor progress and provide technical assistance.
Northeast Technology Center superintendent Roger Crutchfield attended and thanked agency staff for the process.
