What is Institutional Effectiveness?
The Office of Institutional Effectiveness serves as an official data source and function for gathering and delivering evidence of institutional success and accountability for the University. The office provides analytical services to inform planning, decision-making, student retention and success, assessment, and accreditation at a variety of organizational levels while maintaining reporting requirements for government agencies and other external organizations.
The office supports the success of the University community by:
- Applying research-based methods to solve significant educational and organizational issues facing the institution
- Creating and promoting an institutional culture of data-informed decision making
- Providing the data and information necessary to promote best practices for student success
- Developing and maintaining relationships with both internal and external constituencies to support institutional goals and objectives
