I have reverted the reversion of my edit to this page. If you have reliable information regarding the re-accreditation of this school, please include it in the article, and do not simply revert the edit. As of December 2016, ACICS is no longer recognized as a valid accreditor in the United States. Schools that were formerly accredited by the ACICS need to seek new credentials or they will lose the ability to accept Federal Education funds. You can follow the links in the article, or view the wikipedia article on Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools UnkleFester (talk) 02:37, 2 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The user with the IP 208.23.77.130 may have a conflict of interest, as this IP resolves to the Virginia campus of Miller-Motte Technical College. I have not reviewed all the changes that this individual has made (except where he/she undoes my own edits), though they may warrant further scrutiny.

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest was declined.

• What I think should be changed: "Miller-Motte College, formerly Miller-Motte Technical College, is a system of private for-profit technical colleges throughout the southeastern United States." should be changed to "Miller-Motte College is a system of private for-profit technical colleges throughout United States."
• Why it should be changed: The current information is not wholly accurate. Not all Miller-Motte Colleges were formerly Miller-Motte Technical College, not all campuses are in the southeast.
• References supporting the possible change (format using the "cite" button): ^[1]

• What I think should be changed: "Miller-Motte was founded in 1916, in Wilmington, North Carolina, as a small training facility for courtroom stenographers. Over the years, the college established other campuses in Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and Georgia." should be changed to "Miller-Motte College started with one campus in 1916 in the city of Wilmington, NC. Founded by Judge Leon Motte, the school began as a training center for courtroom stenographers. Eventually in the late 1980s, Miller-Motte expanded into Tennessee and began to evolve."

• What I think should be changed: "Miller-Motte is accredited by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges as branch campuses of Platt College in Tulsa, Oklahoma.[5] The Medical Assisting and Surgical Technology programs offered at several campuses are accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (www.caahep.org) upon the recommendation of the Medical Assisting Education Review Board (MAERB) [6]" should be changed to "Miller-Motte College is accredited by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges (ACCSC).

• What I think should be changed: "Online campus

In August 2009, Miller-Motte College launched a Bachelor of Science degree completion program, Miller-Motte College Online. The site offers numerous degree programs in various fields and expanding rapidly." should be totally replaced with "Online Programs [line] Miller-Motte College offers a variety of online programs in healthcare, business, technology, and education. Bachelor of Science degree programs are available in Accounting, Marketing, Human Resources Management, Business Management, Cyber Security, IT Management, Computer Science, Data Management, Cloud Computing, Network Ops & Security, Software Development, Healthcare Management, and Allied Health Management."

• Why it should be changed: The entire "Online campus" section is inaccurate and a violation of accreditation rules. There is no such thing as an "online campus"

 Note: Please cite secondary sources, and don't like to the Miller-Motte's homepage. Also note that most of the licensing is not relevant for Wikipedia. Best regards, -- Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 17:53, 6 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
