administrative programs.

assessment process improves administrative efficiency.

assessment process is linked to strategic planning, especially
in the development and improvement of mission-specific programs.

are involved in the assessment processes as they relate to student

into assessment results and strategic planning.

improvements are linked to the assessment process. There is periodic

mission-driven programs and projects are conceived through the
assessment process; the results of these projects are incorporated
into institutional planning.
- There
is a written institutional strategic plan that reflects consideration
