Dean Costillas Tops AACCUP Examination for Senior Accreditors

Dr. Juanita M. Costillas, the new Dean of the Undergraduate Studies of SLSU-Main Campus, is one of the Top Scorers (Rank No. 3) of the Accrediting Agency of Chartered Colleges and Universities in the Philippines (AACCUP), Inc. Examination for Senior Accreditors. The examination was given after the three-day Training of AACCUP Senior Accreditors on Outcome-Based Quality Assurance (OBQA) held in Punta Villa Resort, Arevalo, Iloilo City, Philippines last May 11-13, 2015. There were 64 examinees, all senior accreditors whose academic ranks range from Professor 6 and below, from the different colleges and universities in Region 6, Region 7 and Region 8. The recognition of Top Scorers was done during the closing program of the training.

Dr. Costillas, who is a Professor 2 of SLSU-Main Campus got a score of 51 while the examinee in rank 1 got 53 and rank 2 got 52, out of a 60-item test which was administered in one hour. The test measures the knowledge and expertise of a senior accreditor gained from the training and from accreditation experience. This is a humble accomplishment that speaks of the quality of SLSU-Main Campus professors and accreditors.
