ALS on Accreditation Eligibility Panel at Higher Learning Commission Conference
CHIGAGO, March 31, 2004 – American Learning Solutions (ALS), parent company of the American Graduate School of Management (AGSM), was recently invited by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools to present at an “Organizing for Accreditation Eligibility” session during the Commission’s 2004 Annual Meeting. The Commission is a regional U.S. higher education accreditation body.
The session addressed key requirements in the accreditation eligibility process including, governance, faculty credentials, strategic planning, learning environments, and finances.
Dr. Richard W. Oliver, ALS CEO, said during the session, “The accreditation process requires institutions to carefully examine the core values and goals of the university. ALS goals are to deliver the best of traditional higher education while leveraging new models and technology to enable more of the world’s population to access management education. Our work with the Commission to secure accreditation reflects those goals.”
ALS was founded in 2000 as a Vanderbilt University Technology Company and its degree-granting unit, AGSM, is authorized by the Tennessee Higher Education Commission to grant the Master of Management and other advanced degrees.
