Accreditation

Business Industry Certification (BIC) standards were developed in 1998 by business/industry representatives and educators. The standards were certified by the International Organization of Standardization in 2003.  The standards establish and maintain a quality accountability system for improvement and enhancement of Career/Technical Education. BIC promotes the preparedness of Alabama's students for success in tomorrow's workforce and in life.  (acteonline.org)

Each program at the Autauga County Technology Center has met the required standards for initial BIC accreditation and maintains continued compliance on an annual basis.
