These 'courses' or training modules are designed to enhance the quality of education across the mid-Atlantic region, covering topics like financial responsibility, academic integrity, and innovation in teaching and learning. Participants gain insights into maintaining accreditation status, fostering institutional excellence, and adapting to evolving higher education landscapes. While not degree-granting, these offerings support over 500 institutions in Delaware, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. The emphasis is on practical, evidence-based strategies to ensure high standards in postsecondary education, promoting accountability and continuous quality improvement among member institutions.
