Licensure Disclosures
For academic programs that may reasonably be assumed to lead to professional licensure or certification required by the profession, these disclosures indicate, as of February 14, 2023, the states and territories where PCC has determined through reasonable, good faith effort that such programs meet or do not meet the licensing or certification requirements for employment, or for which PCC has not yet made a determination.
Information on resolving grievances
Students should attempt to resolve any grievances they may have with their school first. Should attempts to resolve these problems with appropriate school officials fail, or should the student be dissatisfied with the final outcome of the college complaint process, then the Higher Education Coordinating Commission (HECC), can respond to a formal complaint. Students may contact the Higher Education Coordinating Commission, 3225 25th St. SE, Salem, OR 97302 or by sending an email to complaints@hecc.oregon.gov. Students may also access the HECC Complaints web page for information, or visit the complaints page at NC-SARA’s website.
