The Accreditation Liaison Officer (ALO) is the individual that WSCUC relies on to communicate matters of accreditation between the Commission, WSCUC staff, and the institution. The ALO is expected to stay knowledgeable about accreditation policies and processes, keep the institution informed about accreditation changes, promote an understanding of the Commission’s accreditation Standards and processes, help host accreditation visits and support accreditation reviews, facilitate submission of timely reports to the Commission, and stay in close contact with the institution’s WSCUC staff liaisons.  Experienced ALO representatives will also share ideas for effectively engaging institutional constituents, representing the institution to WSCUC, using available data, communicating with the WSCUC staff liaison, organizing resources for WSCUC processes such as Annual Reporting and Substantive Change applications, and generally supporting the work of accreditation.
