The Quality Enhancement Plan or QEP is a five-year commitment to improve a specific aspect of student learning or student success via broad-based involvement across the college. The development and evaluation of a QEP is a requirement for accreditation through the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC).

Columbia State has selected Critical Thinking as the topic of our next QEP, with the title: “Thinking Critically, Growing Purposefully”.

We invite you to watch the short introductory video below for an overview of Columbia State’s QEP: “Thinking Critically, Growing Purposefully”. You can also follow the links below to answers to frequently answered questions, SACSCOC and the process for accreditation, information about the QEP development and timeline, or the full version of the college’s QEP Project Report.
