California University of Pennsylvania kicked off 2019 by acquiring or renewing accreditations for 21 academic degree programs.
Program accreditation is a quality-assurance process designed to verify a university’s programs meet nationally recognized standards of academic and professional excellence.
The latest round of approvals brings Cal U’s total to more than 50 accredited programs.
Before a program can be accredited, a team of representatives from a recognized accrediting agency scrutinizes all aspects of the degree program, including its curriculum, faculty credentials and student outcomes.
The team also holds an in-person site visit at the university.
