Framing Action Analytics and Putting Them to Work

Framing Action Analytics and Putting Them to Work, from Donald Norris, Joan Leonard, Louis Pugliese, Linda Baer, and Paul Lefrere.

A Web-only companion resource to the item we shared last week in "SCUP Email News": "Strategic Planning Analytics enable institutions to strategically plan for success in competitive environments and deliver on the promised value propositions. In this context, strategic means 'dealing with the enterprise's relationship with its competitive environment.' These analytics are the instrument for articulating the value that institutions provide to learners and other stakeholders. Today's emerging environment requires institutions to be held accountable, transparently. This includes the extent to which institutional goals, curricula, and practices are aligned to employment and workforce requirements. Strategic Planning Analytics draw from all of the other functional areas in providing summative metrics on the performance of the institution as a whole, with drill-downs to constituent colleges, departments, and programs."
