The CPCACC Certification Commission helps private faith-based institutions of higher education improve the quality of their institutions and programs.
The CPCACC Certification Commission provides administrative and academic certification to Private, Faith-Based Institutions of Higher Learning.
Private – meaning that it is not public. That is, not designed, organized, or controlled by local, state or federal governments (such as community/state junior or senior colleges and universities).
Faith-based – meaning Christus Primum (Christ First), and that the foundation of the institution rests upon the Scripture with full confidence in its inerrancy and infallibility. It means that such a foundation rests not on antiquated and outmoded relic of a less enlightened age, but the wise and intelligent embrace of the true wisdom of the ages. Christus Primum.
