Institutional Effectiveness

The Center for Institutional Effectiveness (CIE) was created in 2004. Its mission is to promote institutional policies, practices and activities that enhance institutional effectiveness. It fosters on campus a culture that values inquiry, evidence and collaboration and supports college-wide decision-making and planning initiatives by collecting, analyzing and reporting information about the college.

While the Center’s activities, initiatives and projects will vary over time in response to changing needs, its current emphasis is on institutional research, strategic planning and assessment.
