Minnesota West Community & Technical College has received formal notification of action taken by the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing (ACEN) with the Board of Commissioners granting continued accreditation to the Minnesota West Community & Technical College associate nursing program. The next scheduled evaluation will be spring 2023. 

The ACEN team visited Minnesota West formally in January and deliberations centered on the Self-Study Report, the Catalog, and the Sit Visitors’ Report and the recommendation for accreditation proposed by the program evaluators and the Evaluation Review Panel.

Dawn Gordon, Minnesota West Community & Technical College Dean of Nursing, comments, “I’m proud of the nursing students and nursing faculty from Minnesota West. Their contributions to reaccreditation allow us to continue quality nursing education in Southwest Minnesota.”
