The Assessment & Institutional Effectiveness (AIE) Committee met on May 7, 2019, at 1 p.m. The meeting minutes are as follows:
Dr. Geehan opened the meeting at 1 p.m. She stated that the returns from the Employee Satisfaction Survey were received and that she was working on summarizing the results. Summaries will be distributed when complete and will be published in the Campus Chronicle and included in the annual Institutional Effectiveness Report.
Dr. Geehan then asked Ms. Petley and Mr. Kennedy to update the committee on progress with the new Strategic Planning effort. Mr. Kennedy reported that the Strategic Plan draft was approved by the Planning Committee yesterday and would be presented to the Academic Senate for a vote on Monday, May 13. He noted that there were no changes to the draft resulting from the review by the committee.
He said that the next milestone is submittal to the Board of Trustees in late May, after which implementation activities will begin. Strategic Planning Steering Committee members have been assigned to each of the six priority plan items, and will now begin to develop plans for implementation. This will entail:
- Research to determine current state and previous progress
- Determine resources necessary
- Establish subject champions/develop templates and timelines
- Operationalize priorities and action items
Mr. Wax asked if the Strata report had been considered as part of the Strategic Planning process. Ms Petley stated that a large number of the Strata report recommendations have been addressed or implemented, and that the process was informed by the Strata report. She stated that a summary of Strata recommendations and their status would be forthcoming.
Dr. Geehan then proceeded to review updated results for the following Core Indicators:
- HVCC Graduation rates
- Student retention
- Tuition and Fees
These topics generated lengthy discussion among members. Additional updates to Core Indicators will be discussed in future meetings as data becomes available.
Dr. Geehan announced that her invitation to Christine Smith was accepted and that Ms. Smith will be joining the committee effective May 21.
The meeting was adjourned at 2 p.m.
The next meeting is May 21, 2019.
