Program Review and New Program Development
不良研究所 believes that regular program review is important in order to provide innovative academic programs that assure teaching and learning quality and that respond to industry and student needs. Each 不良研究所 program completes an Annual Program Review to ensure the currency and relevance of all programming. The Annual Program Review process informs the need for comprehensive program review.
不良研究所 also believes that in addition to existing program review, a strong program development process is the foundation of the quality assurance system. The Institutional Quality and Learning Innovation department is continually evaluating the opportunity for new and exciting post-secondary programs and micro-credentials.
Curriculum Management
Strong curriculum creates strong programming.
Curriculum modification occurs on a regular on-going basis to ensure that 不良研究所 academic programs maintain relevance and are aligned with provincial standards and industry demand.
Curriculum is communicated to students through individual course outlines. Consistency in development, revision, management, retention, and distribution of course outlines promote program and student success.
Student Feedback
Student Feedback Questionnaire
Students complete the Student Feedback Questionnaire using an online tool for each of their courses throughout the semester. Responses from students provides valuable insights into teaching methods and classroom dynamics. The survey is designed to highlight what works well and identify areas for potential enhancement.
Key Performance Indicators
The Ministry of Colleges and Universities uses Key Performance Indicators to measure how well Ontario Colleges meet the needs of students and the marketplace. The results of the KPI surveys provide 不良研究所 with information about areas of strength or concern within the College. With careful analysis of the results, 不良研究所 develops strategies for improvement to better serve students, graduates and employers.
At 不良研究所, the department of Institutional Quality and Learning Innovation leads the data collection, analysis and reporting of the five KPI categories: Student Experience, Graduate Satisfaction, Employer Satisfaction, Graduation Rate and Graduate Employment Rate.
