Mentoring/Review Process • “Because we are a new school…”: • SoDM curriculum and student assessment are highly “centralized” • Faculty are “fully engaged” in developing & delivering content • Accreditation every two years! • Initial, interim approach: • Assistant Dean and Director of Program Planning & Assessment met with key faculty and administrators to determine initial outcomes, criteria for success, results, etc. • These same 2 individuals + Susan Morrissey = “ARC” 2013 Institutional Planning, Assessment & Research

Substantive Changes • Program/Unit: Reorganization of the entire SoDM assessment process • Description of Changes: Establishing Sustainable Working Action Groups (SWAGs) according to groups of related accreditation standards • SWAGs will continue their work between accreditation site visits (every 7 years) • Justification for Changes: • SWAGs most closely related to curriculum will work in place of a “traditional” curriculum committee • SWAGs will focus on ongoing assessment; will be able to draw from SWAGs to form a new ARC 2013 Institutional Planning, Assessment & Research
Rubric and Review Process Feedback • Feedback on the rubric and review process. • Susan and Susan were great! • Bottom line: one-on-one “handholding” worked best for us (but is this sustainable for the institution?) • What difficulties were encountered? Looking forward to new format… • SoDM ARC’s process and progress towards addressing comments for “developing” and “acceptable” components received in the 2013 assessment review: • This year: Assistant Dean, Director, and Susan(s) • Future: SWAGs 2013 Institutional Planning, Assessment & Research
