Compliance Certification Requirements:

Detailed guidance on requirements for certification compliance is available at Southern Association of Colleges and Universities, Commission on Colleges, web site, http://www.sacscoc.org/

 

 


CNU Compliance Certification Web site:

This site provides a copy of the final narrative summaries the University submitted to SACS
as justification for compliance re-certification.   Due to the sensitive and confidential nature
of many supporting documents, all supporting documents are excluded from this site.
Click here to view the compliance certification narrative summaries.



CNU SACS Focused Report:


The Focused Report contains CNU's response to the judgement of 'non-compliance'
and responds to the need for more information to support compliance for the
requirements or standards the committee did not review in the Compliance Certification.

The Focused Report includes the orginal narrative CNU supplied in the Complaince
Certification, the off-site committee's responses, and the additional narratives and
support documents to address committee's responses. Due the confidential nature
of many of the supporting documents, all supporting documentation ( i.e., links ) do not
function in the online version of this limited access report. This report is protected by

SACS On-site Review Visit and Committee:


The SACS COC On-site Review Committee was on campus March 19 until
March 21, 2007.
The committee's primary purpose was to review and evaluate CNU's
Quality Enhancement Plan to determine compliance with Compliance Certification
Core Requirement 2.12. In addition, the committee reviewed the Focused Report CNU
prepared in response to the Off-Site Committtee's Preliminary Findings Report. The
on-site committee determined if CNU is in compliance with Core Requirements and
Compliance Standards presented in CNU's Focused Report. At the conclusion of the
visit, the On-Site Review Committee presented its findings and recommendations
to President Trible.
