Focused Report Links: The Focused Report is composed of a narrative which addresses each area cited by the off-site review team with links to support documentation in PDF format. Each report is listed in order on the Focused Report Index page and is accessible by clicking on the title of the numbered narrative. Upon review of the narrative, you can move back to a previous report, or forward to the next report by clicking on the back or forward arrow. Clicking on the up arrow will navigate you to the Focused Report Index page.

Quality Enhancement Plan: The Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) is accessible by clicking on Quality Enhancement Plan on the "SACS Reaffirmation Web Site" home page. The QEP is a PDF document which requires Adobe Reader.

Compliance Report Links: Each report is listed in order on the Compliance Report Index page and is accessible by clicking on the title of the numbered narrative. Upon review of the narrative, you can move back to a previous report, or forward to the next sequential report by clicking on the back or forward arrow. Clicking on the up arrow will navigate you to the Compliance Report Index page.

The title of each report is clearly marked at the beginning of the narrative (below the masthead) and on the top of the web page so you will always know which page you are viewing.
Each support document referenced in the report narrative is linked directly to the appropriate document. When you click on the link in the narrative, or in the support document table, the document will open in the browser window that is open. To return to the narrative, simply choose "Back" on the browser navigation bar.
In this compliance certification document, the terms, Board of Trustees and Area Commission, are used interchangeably. Likewise, the terms, S.C. Technical College System (abbreviated SCTCS) and State Board for Technical and Comprehensive Education (abbreviated SBTCE), are used interchangeably.
Supporting Documentation: Each document referenced in the Compliance Report is indexed alphabetically on the Document Directory page. These documents are available by clicking the document title in the document directory index or, by clicking on the document title found within each narrative of the Compliance Report. As mentioned, all of these links are designed to open in the existing browser window. Once you have finished reviewing the documentation, you can click "Back" on the browser navigation bar to return to the narrative.
In most cases, if not all, each support document is available in a PDF file.
