Question | Person(s) Responsible | Notes and Next Steps | |
How will the college prepare for the upcoming accreditation peer-review process including the institutional self-evaluation report? | Adam Karp and Bill Simpson |
Training last month at district with the accreditation liaison for ARC. District has an accreditation timeline; meeting Dec 6. ISER draft completed Spring 2021. IEC sponsor a project team for evidence gathering? -Differences from last accreditation: 100 page limit, has a template, more evidence gathering less analysis. -District will be writing some of the sections that are the same across the four colleges. -Quality focused essay topic determined by college. Feedback will be provided, no "right" answer. |
|
What feedback does the council have on the institutional research data use statement? | Adam Karp |
-Feedback: defining data, philosophy and listing what is available is great. Will facilitate a use of data culture. Essential for fostering an equity culture. Needs to be in the forefront. -In the philosophy section, could add employees better understanding themselves as well. -Responsibility IR has; how do we support the campus entities? -Certain situations when IR should be involved (publishing documents, etc.). Gatekeeper when outside entities want to survey students. Detail when it would be appropriate to have IR involved, where boundaries are. -Add information about the IRB (Institutional Review Board). |
