  9. Next Steps • The diversity data for each program will be summarized as an addendum to the IR. • Diversity work is important to the GSE and each program; most programs will find they already do a lot of this. • What supports could help you develop evidence for each of these areas? • What additional information would you like to have about the accreditation process?
