Abstract

This multiple mediation analysis explores the relationship between accreditation compliance and board pass rates, mediated by management of school resources, quality of academic programs, and student engagement, among the selected Local Universities and Colleges (LUC) in the Philippines. Anchored in the Institutional Theory, the study delves into the impact of the Association of Local Colleges and Universities Commission on Accreditation (ALCUCOA) compliance across diverse institutions, examining its nine accreditation areas as stringent evaluators of predetermined standards. The results highlight the significant influence of accreditation compliance on board pass rates, particularly at higher standards and underscores the positive impact of effective management of school resources and quality academic programs. Furthermore, it emphasizes the importance of student engagement in achieving favorable outcomes. The full model underscores their interconnectedness, explaining 44.0% of the variability in board pass rates. These values highlight the profound influence of accreditation compliance and its mediating factors on academic outcomes, emphasizing the need for institutions to strategically uphold and enhance accreditation standards. Implications for institutions include the importance of strategic accreditation planning, resource management enhancement, quality academic program development, fostering student engagement, and comprehensive accreditation training.
