Each year, the Higher Learning Commission requires each member institution to provide an update on organizational health. Completion of the Annual Institutional Data Update (AIDU) is a requirement of affiliation with the Commission. The AIDU is accessible from March 1 - April 16.

The Commission has updated the overview and developed a timeline to demonstrate the implementation of the Pathways Project. The new model proposes to separate the continued accreditation process as currently carried out through PEAQ into two components: the Assurance Process and the Improvement Process.
