Accreditation Steering Committee

Mission and Purpose

The Accreditation Steering Committee (ASC) serves as a standing committee that reports to Faculty Senate and PAC. It is responsible for all aspects of the accreditation process at Fullerton College. The primary purpose of the ASC is to guide the college’s accreditation activities, including the following:

  • Preparation of any required accreditation reports
  • Monitoring of accreditation policies and regulations, including standards issued by ACCJC
  • Education of the campus community on accreditation standards and the accreditation process
  • Systematic documentation and organization of evidence related to the accreditation standards.
  • Recommendations to the Faculty Senate and PAC regarding accreditation-related issues.
  • Review College’s processes, practices, procedures, and publications for compliance with accreditation standards.
  • The ASC is also responsible for ensuring that the self-evaluation process, preparation of reports, and other activities related to accreditation draw on wide campus engagement conducted in a transparent manner.
