Data-Driven Decision Making Workshop
Description
Advocating the Department through Data and Analytics: Best Practices
This workshop will assist participants in learning about various data that the college, campus leadership, state, and higher education commissions are tracking and monitoring (academic analytics, faculty salary data, career outcomes data, CIP codes, etc.); how to obtain data; how to interpret data; and how to use data to advocate (or assess) the department and programs. The workshop will share best practices of utilizing data to advocate (or improve) the department’s/programs goals and utilizing data to hire, promote, and provide financial raises/incentives to faculty members. Breakfast included.
NOTE: This is the same workshop that was presented last year during the annual conference, although you are welcome to take it again. Or you can participate in the new Leadership Workshop series, that includes this workshop, plus others offered virtually during the 2025-2026 academic year.
