Calhoun Community College A.A.S. (Career/Technical) Academic Program Review

The academic program review process at Calhoun Community College has been developed to support on-going institutional effectiveness processes and is a vital part of institutional planning. The program review is a comprehensive, systematic method of self-evaluation and review conducted every three years within all instructional programs.

Academic Deans and Department Chairs should conduct appropriate research to supply information required in the narrative portion of the program review. Discrete data will be provided by the Office of Planning, Research and Grants 30 days prior to the due date.

Program reviews should be submitted to the Office of the Vice President of Instruction and Student Success and to the Office of Planning, Research and Grants by December 3, 2019. The Office of Planning, Research and Grants is responsible for maintaining current program review information on the College's website.

Program review information should be used internally to evaluate the effectiveness of each program. Contents of the program review should be shared with appropriate Advisory Boards, Excellence Teams, and others to enhance effective planning. Specifically, program outcome data should be used to evaluate the effectiveness of the program.

The attached template should be used in providing all program review information. Please prepare a separate template for each program and/or degree type.
