MN State College-SE Technical has enrolled in an alternative process to maintain its accreditation with the Higher Learning Commission (HLC) of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools (NCA).  The Academic Quality Improvement Program (AQIP), in association with NCA, allows our college to pursue and instill the principles and processes of continuous quality improvement into our school using set criteria and guidelines.   

Our goal in enrolling in the AQIP process is to align our accreditation with our daily operations, where students and stakeholders experience how we deliver our mission of education for employment – how we determine what our students need, how we help our students learn, how we use data to make decisions, how we interact and collaborate with one another, how we plan, and how we support the college's mission of education for employment.
