Faculty Guidelines
Credentialing Parameters for Particular Disciplines
Degrees and course work must be obtained from institutions that are "regionally accredited" through one of the following:
- Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges, WASC (ACCJC)
- New England Commission of Higher Education (NECHE)
- Higher Learning Commission (HLC)
- Formerly known as North Central Association of Colleges and Schools
- Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE)
- Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities
- Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC)
- WASC Senior College and University Commission
Any deviation from this practice should be prepared as an alternative credentialing application. International credentials must be assessed as equivalent academic preparation by an approved evaluation service.
Course work submitted by the faculty applicant as graduate credit must be clearly designated by the granting institution as part of a graduate program, or formally validated by the granting institution as graduate level study. Official transcripts must be provided by the granting institution.
