Supporting the UA community in a meaningful, measurable and manageable process of quality improvement.
What We Do
The University of Alabama values and supports a robust process of institutional effectiveness as a tool to enhance innovation, student learning, service and stewardship.
Institutional effectiveness is defined as a set of ongoing, systemic and intentional processes designed to improve and assure the quality of the University at all levels through:
- Strategic planning and goal setting.
- Identification of outcomes, measurements, and expectations.
- Evaluation, analysis and use of data to inform decision-making.
The Office of Institutional Effectiveness guides continuous improvement processes for academic and non-academic units across campus on program approval and review, accreditation issues and all assessment activities.
