Mission, Vision and Accreditation
Trine's Office of Dual Enrollment
Mission:
Trine University Dual Enrollment promotes college-level intellectual and personal development for high school students through dual credit and college preparatory opportunities, preparing students to graduate from high school, transition into higher education, and to succeed, lead and serve their communities later in life.
Vision:
Trine Dual Enrollment will be recognized as a premier provider for high quality dual enrollment education for high school students.
Accreditation:
Trine Dual Enrollment is accredited through the National Alliance of Concurrent Enrollment Partnerships (NACEP). The National Alliance of Concurrent Enrollment Partnerships is a professional organization that sets national standards for concurrent enrollment programs, which allow high school students to take college courses for credit. NACEP accreditation ensures that these programs meet rigorous quality standards in areas such as curriculum, faculty, student support, assessment, and program evaluation. Being NACEP accredited is important because it provides schools, students, and parents with confidence that the dual credit courses offered are held to the same academic standards as those taught on a college campus. This accreditation promotes consistency, accountability, and academic integrity, and often makes it easier for students to transfer their credits to other institutions.
