Collegewide Structure
To enhance existing assessment efforts, the institution supports a centralized approach to the development of assessment guidelines and resources. The Collegewide Institutional Effectiveness Committee has several subcommittees, referred to as Effectiveness Collaboratives to address specific areas of institutional effectiveness. The committee relies on the strength and expertise of effectiveness collaboratives to direct assessment in each institutional effectiveness area within the College. These collaboratives were designed to reflect the culture and mission of the College, while addressing the applicable areas of SACS Comprehensive Standard 3.3.1. As the institution’s mission is not inclusive of research,the College chose to add an institutional effectiveness area of Human Performance Enhancement to focus on professional development and evaluation of each employee group.Mission – Vision – Values – Goals |

These processes include a systematic review of mission and goals; assessment of student learning outcomes; continuous improvement of institutional quality; and support of the institution’s accreditation activities that are specifically related to SACS institutional effectiveness standards. The Collegewide Institutional Effectiveness Committee is specifically charged with supporting assessment of academic programs, educational support services, and non-academic units. |
