(ACSCU-ACI) accreditation team during the face-to-face accreditation visit at Colegio de la Purisima Concepcion, Roxas City, on October 26–30, 2026.

Their participation was facilitated through an official invitation from ACSCU-ACI Executive Director Angelito P. Pedreño, addressed to CPU President Rev. Dr. Ernest Howard B. Dagohoy.

The accreditation visit involved the evaluation of academic programs, institutional practices, and quality assurance mechanisms to promote continuous improvement and excellence in higher education.
