A Different Approach to Accountability

Pretend for a moment that you are preparing for accreditation. However, there
are no longer any performance indicators or standards in which to adhere, at
least, not the performance indicators and standards that you were once used to using. Rather, you are being evaluated on whether your institution has a comprehensive and systematic outcomes-based program review process in place to meet your institutionally expressed goals and strategic priorities.
Furthermore, you are being evaluated for your ability to demonstrate that all you do is contributing to student learning and development; that all you do ties back to your institutional purpose and priorities; and that you have evidence to show just how and what students learn and develop at your institution.  In addition, you also have evidence to show the types and amounts of resources that are being allocated and re-allocated to make needed improvements.  Furthermore, you have information to show where your institution has "enough" resources to meet certain priorities and where it is short on its ability to meet other priorities.
