含羞草视频

Accreditation

含羞草视频 is accredited by the New England Commission of Higher Education (formerly the Commission on Institutions of Higher Education of the New England Association of Schools and Colleges, Inc.).

Accreditation of an institution of higher education by the Commission indicates that it meets or exceeds criteria for the assessment of institutional quality periodically applied through a peer review process. An accredited college or university is one which has available the necessary resources to achieve its stated purposes through appropriate educational programs, is substantially doing so, and gives reasonable evidence that it will continue to do so in the foreseeable future. Institutional integrity is also addressed through accreditation.

Accreditation by the Commission is not partial but applies to the institution as a whole. As such, it is not a guarantee of every course or program offered, or the competence of individual graduates. Rather, it provides reasonable assurance about the quality of opportunities available to students who attend the institution.

Inquiries regarding the accreditation status by the Commission should be directed to Cynthia Burns Martin at cmartin@nec.edu. Individuals also may contact:

Online Education: Verification of Student Identity

NEC assigns each student a secure network account with a unique username and password. All students registering for a course at NEC are assigned unique identification numbers and corresponding usernames. Before a student can access any information resource on the College鈥檚 network(s), the student must be authenticated by the directory service using his/her username and password. Students are assigned a password when their account is first established, and they are required to change their password when they initially activate their account. Passwords must be suitably complex. There are no additional charges associated with verification.

All users of the College鈥檚 learning management systems are responsible for maintaining the security of usernames, passwords, and other access credentials as required. An account is assigned to an individual for the exclusive use by that individual. Attempting to discover another user鈥檚 password or attempts to gain unauthorized access to another person鈥檚 files or mail is prohibited.

In addition, faculty teaching online courses have a role in identity verification insofar as they can be alerted to changes in student behavior: sudden shifts in academic performance and changes in writing style or language used in discussion groups or email. These changes may indicate academic integrity issues. Faculty routinely use a variety of assessment instruments and regularly ask students to share in appropriate ways important ideas learned from texts and references and require research projects and paper assignments to be submitted in steps.
