Selected Accomplishments:

Prepared institution for accreditation Prepared, adopted and dated – or update — the three written accreditation plans required – strategic or long-range plan, diversity and inclusiveness plan, and assessment plan – at least three or four years before preparing the self-study. Site teams are skeptical about plans apparently adopted in the year of the self-study. Because effective plans should include measurable objectives and actions, showing annual progress and achievement over three or four years strengthens the case for compliance. Other parts to include: Enrollment Statistics; Syllabi; Demographics; Faculty Credentials; Retention and Graduation/Course Completion; Detailed Budget; Assessment of Learning Outcomes.

A successful student/program retention strategy requires that I think about things from my institution/team’s point of view.
