Welcome to Angelina College’s Institutional Effectiveness and Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) website. The QEP is a key component of the SACS (Southern Association of Colleges and Schools)  requirements for Reaffirmation of Accreditation. The purpose of the QEP is to enhance the programming and services for our students to create an environment more conducive to learning. The QEP is an ongoing process that should complement the institution’s planning and evaluation process (Institutional Effectiveness).

It is our determination that the role of critical thinking is the key to successful learning outcomes for all Angelina College students. This has been evidenced in our Student Success (STSU 0100-0300) course where critical thinking is introduced to our incoming freshmen.

The focus of our QEP includes the following goals: (1) Establishing a common understanding of critical thinking among college administration, faculty, and staff (2) Implementing critical thinking skills across the curricula and (3) Ensuring Angelina College graduates will be able to apply critical thinking skills and strategies in their academic, professional and personal lives.

Institutional Effectiveness activities do not occur in isolation, but involve all administrators, faculty, staff and students. The Institutional Planning and Evaluation Council (IPEC) works closely with the QEP Advisory Committee to identify areas for evaluation, design assessment strategies, and to guide the institution in carrying out its mission.

Angelina College is accredited by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools to award associate degrees. Contact the Commission on Colleges at 1866 Southern Lane, Decatur, Georgia 30033-4097 or call 404-679-4500 for questions about the accreditation of Angelina College.
