On July 18, 2025, the State Board of Community Colleges voted to amend the State Board Code, 1C SBCCC 300.3 – Faculty Standards. This amendment replaces all mentions of SACSCOC with “institutional accrediting agency” in faculty hiring and teaching standards within employment and hiring practices.
The amendment will be effective August 1, 2025. At that time, the amended rule will be published on the North Carolina Community College System’s website, State Board Code – NCCCS (nccommunitycolleges.edu). For your convenience, a copy of the rule in its final form is attached to this memorandum.
