WSCUC's Approach to Evidence and Data
WSCUC is developing pathways for strengthening the use of evidence and outcomes to drive equitable student success through institutional quality and improvement as part of a significant leadership initiative, “Better Conversations, Better Data,” funded by Lumina Foundation. This evidence and improvement initiative complements WSCUC’s two other Goals, equity and inclusion and national and global reach.
The work at its core standardizes institutional data used as part of the accreditation review, introduces accreditation process improvements, and provides a training agenda that fosters the effective use of data for all participants in the accreditation process – institutions, peer reviewers, commissioners, and staff liaisons.
