QEP - Quality Enhancement Plan
WHAT IS THE QEP?
The Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) is a five-year action and implementation plan designed to enhance student learning and further strengthen Trenholm State’s educational mission. The QEP is required by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC), the regional accrediting body for the accreditation of degree-granting higher education institutions in the Southeastern states. The Commission’s mission is to maintain the educational quality of colleges throughout the region and help them develop programs to improve learning and success for their students.
WHY ARE WE CREATING A QEP?
Every ten years, all regionally accredited colleges and universities engage in the renewal of their institution’s accreditation. A major part of the reaffirmation process is the development and submission of a QEP to SACSCOC. Trenholm State administrators, faculty, and staff developed enhancements to the developmental mathematics courses and actions to improve student success in these courses. This new program is entitled “Raising the Bar for Math Success.”
