The College promotes and supports a culture where compliance is a shared responsibility and part of our everyday work. This is accomplished through the implementation and maintenance of a College Compliance Program that:

  • Monitors adherence to applicable federal, state, and local regulations, including but not limited to Title IX, FERPA, ADA, PESH  and Clery Act;
  • Researches compliance requirements, creates and updates College policies and procedures, and collaborates with applicable College employees to develop and implement processes that ensure adherence to regulatory requirements and internal policies;
  • Monitors adherence to external data/information compliance requirements for institutional level reporting, including but not limited to, accreditation, grants, human resources, finance, institutional research and other areas as necessary;
  • Manages potential compliance risks, conducting risk assessments, and implementing mitigation strategies to reduce exposure, ensuring the institution's operational integrity;
  • Provides support to departments in achieving and maintaining compliance..

The responsibility of maintaining compliance is not the sole responsibility of this office; compliance is the responsibility of specific individuals and units.  All members of the College community are expected to act ethically and comply with all applicable laws and regulations related to their roles and activities.
