To further College efforts to provide useful quantitative data for program analysis, the College purchased and implemented TracDat during Summer and Fall 2012. Through the combined effort of faculty, staff, and administrators, program plan data were entered into TracDat for each of the instructional, student service, and business service programs at the beginning of the Fall semester to ensure that this information would be ready for use during the Fall 2012 program review process. The Faculty Development Committee and Institutional Researcher organized several training sessions to teach the college community how to use TracDat to document and maintain their program plans and Student Learning Outcome assessment results. The campus-wide collaboration during this implementation period showed the strong campus support for this new system and the new ability to track and monitor program plans and results. 13 During Spring 2013, the Institutional Researcher began working with TracDat representatives to develop a variety of quantitative reports that will supplement the standard TracDat reports and give us program and institution-level data the College can use to analyze and measure institutional effectiveness over time. 14 Next steps: Complete 2nd cycle of program plan review and post results in TracDat. Add program review summary data to Institutional Effectiveness Report. Build the structure within TracDat to disseminate effectiveness data at program level. President’s Council will create a steering committee (?) to monitor, assess, and evaluate Institutional Effectiveness. The committee will develop a feedback process to disseminate this information to the campus community (?).
