Institutional Effectiveness Supporting Documents
As part of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) Commission on Colleges (COC) reaccreditation process, OIRPA provides documentation to SACS under the following requirements: Core Requirement 2.5 (Institutional Effectiveness), Comprehensive Standard 3.3.1 (Institutional Effectiveness), Comprehensive Standard 3.5.1 (General Education Competencies), and Federal Requirement 4.1 (Student Achievement).
In preparing responses for these requirements, OIRPA has used various college documents to provide background information and support for the NOVA planning processes. In addition to those listed under IE Reports (see menu on the right), additional supporting documents are listed here. The reports presented below provide background data and supporting documentation for the NOVA planning process.
