Case Study: Northeast Mississippi Community College achieves streamlined accreditation and strategic planning with Anthology (Campus Labs platform)

Giving Northeast Mississippi Community College the Tools to Streamline Accreditation and Enhance Strategic Planning

Northeast Mississippi Community College, a public institution serving more than 3,500 students, needed a better way to manage accreditation and strategic planning amid limited IT staff and paper- or PDF-based processes. To assess and demonstrate progress toward institutional goals and simplify reporting to accreditors like SACS, the college turned to Anthology’s Campus Labs platform for a centralized, web-based solution.

Anthology implemented the Campus Labs platform with pre-loaded accreditation standards, a centralized document library, and integrated planning and assessment toolsets, enabling top-down strategic planning linked to college goals. The solution made accreditation reviews easier, provided quantitative, multi-year evidence of progress, eliminated silos, and increased efficiency even with fewer resources—allowing Northeast Mississippi Community College to streamline reporting and better demonstrate institutional improvement.
