Our mission is to provide support for the program evaluation and planning needs of the institution through the collection and analysis of both demographic and survey data.  Our goals are: 1) to meet the data/analysis needs of the requestor in a timely manner, based on the best available data; and 2)to present findings in clear, concise, and easy-to-understand/use formats.

The areas for which we provide support include the review and evaluation of the Instructional and Matriculation programs, the validation of placement tests, the evaluation of disproportionate impact, the validation of course prerequisites, and the assessment of student needs.  Upon request, we can prepare contact lists, mailing labels, and/or custom reports on defined student subpopulations.  We also serve as a resource for the design and development of data collection instruments (surveys) and can support the direct, OMR-scanned input of data collected via 48-column scannable (Scantron or NCS) forms.
