The Program Effectiveness Process (PEP)

PEP in a Nutshell
Back to 'Workshop Outline/ Next

I. Institutional Purpose
Program faculty and staff connect their work to institutional purpose by reviewing their program mission or goals and linking to the college’s expanded mission, goals, and vision statement.

II. Program Goals & Learner Outcomes
Program faculty and staff identify a very limited set (2-4) program goals or learner outcomes to focus on for a particular year. These outcomes are not meant to represent a summation of the programs work but are rather simply an indication of the particular issue a program feels is worth focusing on in a given year (or years).

III. Assessment
For each program goal or learner outcome identified, programs identify two assessments. Assessments must truly measure the outcomes or goal they are linked to, contain criteria for success, and not pose a heavy workload on program staff or faculty.

IV. Results
Programs review and analyze results from assessments.

V. Action
Based on the results of all of your assessments, create an action plan.
