Fremont Adult & Continuing EducationThe Accrediting Commission for Schools, Western Association of Schools and Colleges (ACS WASC) announces the action taken at the Winter 2019 Commission Meeting. The ACS WASC Commissioners have determined Fremont Adult & Continuing Education meets the ACS WASC criteria for accreditation. This accreditation status is based on all of the information provided by the school, including the self-study report, and the satisfactory completion of the on-site accreditation visit.
It is the decision of the Commission to grant Six-Year Accreditation Status with a Mid-cycle One-day Visit through June 30, 2025. Fremont Adult & Continuing Education is required to prepare a Mid-cycle Progress Report for the Mid-cycle Visit. The report and visit should demonstrate that the school has:
♦ Addressed the critical areas for follow-up
through the schoolwide action plan♦ Made appropriate progress on the
implementation of the schoolwide
action plan and♦ Improved student achievement relative to
the schoolwide learner outcomes and the
academic standards.Accreditation status is conditioned upon Fremont Adult & Continuing Education’s continued adherence with the ACS WASC policies, procedures, and criteria for accreditation. This includes a requirement that an accredited school annually contribute members from the school staff or district to participate on visiting committees. Failure to maintain compliance with said policies, procedures, and standards is grounds for modification and/or withdrawal of the accreditation
The Commission looks forward to Fremont Adult & Continuing Education’s anticipated success and continuing improvement in keeping with ACS WASC’s pursuit of excellence in elementary, secondary, and adult education.
Sincerely, Stephen Cathers
Commission Chairperson

Over the last couple of years, our campus community engaged in discussions, data gathering and self-reflection in preparation for an accreditation review by the WASC visiting team. These efforts culminated in an institutional self-study report that was submitted to the commission in September 2018. The WASC presentatives reviewed that report and will visit our campus in October 2018. On October 31, the team will make their recommendations and submit a report to the Commission.
