Accreditation, Presented at NERCOMP Conferences

Brandeis University's Division of Graduate Professional Studies offers entire graduate certificate and degree programs via distance learning. This presentation will illustrate how the division recently applied NEASC Best Practices for Electronically Offered Degree and Certificate Programs for self-assessment and to ensure the quality of its online programs, which resulted in a successful reaccreditation.

As information literacy and active learning principles are being incorporated into accreditation standards, the teaching of these skills is becoming a broader campus concern. This session will feature two collaborative digitization projects that exemplify best practices in visual and information literacy and technology fluency.
