In February 2005, Tohono O’odham Community College (TOCC)
received accreditation from the Higher Learning
Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges
and Schools (NCA). Accreditation acknowledges that TOCC
offers quality education programs and provides a system
for accountability and continuous improvement.
Accreditation means that TOCC’s degree programs and
credit courses will transfer to other colleges and
universities. For example, TOCC is now part of the
statewide network of community colleges whose general
education courses are transferable from institution to
institution.
TOCC achieved land grant status in December 2004,
when the College was added to the U.S. Department of
Agriculture’s list of the 1994 Land Grant Institutions. |
