Over 20 Years Experience in Higher Education Analytics Consulting
Are you an administrator in higher education wondering how to measure student growth for accreditation purposes? Are you wondering how to best study the impact of a new program or initiative on student retention and graduation rates? If so, then we can help! Our team has over 20 years of experience in higher education, with over 10 years spent serving as an accreditation site visitor. We know the challenges of collecting assessment data from faculty across the campus. However, as former faculty members that are trained in measurement and evaluation, we know how to work with faculty to ensure that they understand how to collect the data you need for accreditation purposes or studying the impact of a new initiative.
Some of Our Experience Includes:
- Assisting a 4-year college with their accreditation efforts. Including metrics, data collections, analytics, and reporting.
- Working with a College of Engineering, at a major research university, to explore the impact of instructional interventions on improving the retention and graduation rates of underrepresented minority students in the college.
- Working with a Department of Mathematics, at a major research university, to determine if a particular supplement to instruction would enable more students to pass their required mathematics course.
