ARLINGTON, Virginia, February 28, 2007
On 26 February 2007, UMT received a congratulatory letter from the Distance Education and Training Council (DETC) regarding UMT's continuing to meet the Standards of Accreditation.
As a DETC-accredited institution, UMT submits a report annually on student satisfaction, course completions, and graduation rates. The report is reviewed by DETC and compared to other accredited institutions.
Regarding student satisfaction, UMT's 2006 overall rating was 86 percent, compared to the 75 percent requirement, based on over 1000 respondents. UMT's 2006 course complete rate exceeded 98 percent, significantly above the required 75 percent rate. Finally, of those students who enrolled in degree programs from 1998 through 2006, 95 percent completed their degrees on time.
"Overall UMT is pleased with the ratings and completions achieved by our academic and professional development courses and programs. In the courses for which we have evaluations, our students indicate they are accomplishing their goals, would recommend their courses to their friends, and are overall satisfied." said Dr. C. Eric Kirkland, the Vice President of UMT, "Our students work hard to complete their educational goals. Our job is to ensure that they satisfied with their overall learning experiences."
