Purpose
The institution assesses progress toward achieving stated goals and makes decisions regarding the improvement of institutional effectiveness in an on-going and systematic cycle of evaluation, integrated planning resource allocation, implementation, and re-evaluation. Evaluation is based on analyses of both quantitative and qualitative data.
There are two types of forms for: 1) instructional programs, and 2) non-instructional departments. Both instructional and non-instructional program review includes either a set of comprehensive prompts in year one of the three-year cycle, or annual prompts for years two and three of the review cycle.
Process
Coming soon.
Instructions and Resources
All Non-Instructional areas (including Divisions) will complete the Non-Instructional PRP as a part of our new institutional process.
Departments have the option to complete an Annual PRP in addition to their discipline PRPs. For example, Multicultural Studies may complete an Annual PRP for their department in addition to the required PRP’s for their disciplines – Africana Studies, Chicano Studies and Multicultural Studies.
For IPC members, there is an IPC Comprehensive PRP and peer review list for 2019-2020.
Forms
Departments or disciplines that did not complete a PRP last year will click on the form at right to begin with a blank PRP form. Departments or disciplines that completed a PRP in the previous year will receive a pre-populated fom via email.
Progress to the form will be saved by clicking SAVE and may be accessed upon return to the form. A link to the form may also be shared with others for collaboration or review.
Once the form is complete, click SUBMIT .
Warnings:
