Dollars & Sense Quality Enhancement Plan

Following a two-year collaborative process involving the entire campus community, ECCC chose a financial literacy initiative known as Dollars & Sense as its Quality Enhancement Plan topic as it prepared for 10-Year Reaffirmation of Accreditation by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges. Beginning in Fall 2021, the college began offering practical and applicable financial-oriented content to first-time college students through the freshman orientation course LLS 1312 Warrior Path to Success with credits counting toward graduation. The college’s on-site visit by the SACSCOC accreditation team was over three days in September.
