SACS Reaffirmation of Accreditation

Compliance Certification Report

The SACS reaffirmation process requires the University to document compliance with a number of core requirements, comprehensive standards, and federal requirements as outlined in the Principles of Accreditation: Foundations for Quality Enhancement. Numerous individuals and groups throughout the University are involved in gathering and presenting evidence of UNA’s compliance with these various standards. The SACS Commission on Colleges website provides guidance for documenting the University’s compliance.

UNA is presenting narratives and evidence of compliance through its SACS Reaffirmation website. Because of the sensitive and confidential nature of some types of documentation, access to certain supporting documents is restricted.

The Compliance Certification Report will be submitted to SACS by September 2011 for review by an Off-Site Review Committee during the fall of 2011. If you have questions concerning UNA’s compliance certification, please contact one of the co-chairs of the Compliance Certification Team: Dr. Jerri Bullard (256-765-4531) or Dr. Andrew Luna (256-765-4221).
