How to Generate an Offline Report
Release Notification
Submitting for accreditation or reaffirmation can be a stressful time. Knowing that, last year we asked ourselves how we can reduce the stress associated with that process. After some internal brainstorming and conversations with current clients, the idea of simplifying the process of getting your final report emerged as the top item.
You may have noticed some small changes throughout the fall semester; these were put in place to drive towards our ultimate goal of simplifying the process. With our latest release, generating your report is now completely in your control. You can:
- Choose the items that should be included in your report right within the product
- Run your own Link Checks and view the results on your own timeline, as often as you’d like
- Generate your Offline Report when you need it without reaching out to our support team
The process for getting your Offline Report (formally known as Archive) is all achievable right within Anthology Accreditation. In the Options dropdown menu, look for the new Offline Report selection and read up on the new functionality in this support article.
A huge thank you to:
- Erskine College
- Owensboro Community and Technical College
- South Carolina State University
These are our institutional partners who have continued to provide us feedback on this process as we have been iterating on it.
