Vote for the QEP and encourage your students to vote too!<\/strong>
The QEP Topic Selection Committee has been working hard since February 2021 to review submitted QEP Topics. They\u2019ve narrowed down the list to four topics that will help us fulfill requirements for our SACSCOC (Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges) decennial reaffirmation. The QEP will be a five-year project that supports student success and\/or student learning. LET YOUR VOICE BE HEARD! It is time for you to help us select the QEP topic for the entire ACC Community.\u00a0

As an instructor, your responsibility is to report for yourself and encourage your students to self-report when needed. A member of the ACC Contract Tracing team will contact anyone who self-reports with the next steps. It is not the instructor\u2019s role to report for their students or make quarantine decisions.*If you test positive for COVID, are exhibiting symptoms of COVID, or have been exposed to someone who has tested positive within the last 14 days then you must self-report. Potential exposure is defined as within 6 feet for 15 minutes or more within a 24 hour period.\u00a0
