| Abstract | For the past 12 years, the Academic Quality Improvement Program (AQIP) has offered an innovative means for colleges and universities to maintain regional accreditation with the Higher Learning Commission (HLC), the only regional U.S. accrediting commission currently providing alternative pathways for maintaining accreditation. Although all HLC pathways assure that its accredited colleges and universities meet identical fundamental expectations, we designed AQIP specifically to infuse a culture of continuous quality improvement into colleges and universities through processes that provide evidence for accreditation. By aligning accreditation with the ongoing activities they execute to improve performance and by sharing their improvement results with AQIP, institutions develop the quality mindset critical to achieving the distinctive higher education mission they have set for themselves. At the same time, they generate the evidence that enables their accreditor to provide the public with assurance that they meet quality standards. By proactively helping institutions discover as early as possible any issues that might lead to problems in complying with accreditation expectations, AQIP helps institutions remedy and preempt problems quickly and supports those that are not making progress in developing and implementing corrective actions.
