Accreditation is a status granted to an educational institution or program that has been found to meet or exceed stated criteria of educational quality and student achievement. Accreditation is viewed as a nationally-honored seal of excellence for occupational education institutions and denotes honesty and integrity. Butte County ROP is accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) and the Council on Occupational Education (COE). Both accreditation processes assure quality and integrity in career and technical education.
Reaffirmation denotes that an institution has maintained quality programs, again undergone an extensive self-study and team review process, and has continued to meet the Commission’s Standards and Conditions for Accreditation. Accreditation is granted annually with subsequent reaffirmation scheduled for two to six years. Each institution must substantiate its accreditation each year through an annual report which reflects the current status of the institution.
Butte County ROP successfully completed the reaffirmation process in March of 2025, and was granted reaffirmation of accreditation by the Commission of the Council on Occupational Education, effective June 11, 2025 until the next scheduled reaffirmation in 2031.
