“Fletcher Technical Community College has shown its commitment to teaching excellence and to the process of quality improvement by participating in the accreditation process,” said ACBSP Chief Accreditation Officer Dr. Steve Parscale, who will present the Certificate of Accreditation at ACBSP Conference 2020 in Chicago, Illinois, on June 28. “This accreditation is evidence that Fletcher is committed to providing the highest quality business education for their students.”
