Institutional Effectiveness: Number 153 Spring 2011

The first book to take a holistic, practical approach to community college institutional effectiveness

Head takes a holistic approach to institutional effectiveness knitting all of the constituent parts of the effectiveness equation into a seamless whole to provide American community college scholars and administrators with a valuable source of insight and guidance. Topics covered include accountability, accreditation, intuitional research, program review, measuring student success, and stakeholder participation.
