Malcolm X College is going
through the initial accreditation process with its cohort that began classes in
the Fall 2021 semester. Surgical Technology programs cannot receive
accreditation without first beginning a cohort for the Committee on
Accreditation (COA), Accreditation Review Council on Education in Surgical
Technology and Surgical Assisting (ARC/STSA) to evaluate. The above thresholds
are the criteria that will be evaluated to determine if accreditation will be
granted.
