Enhancing Academic Quality: AQIP Timelines and Action Projects Overview

This presentation focuses on the Academic Quality Improvement Process (AQIP) and its critical role in institutional enhancement. We explore three main cycles: Action Projects, Strategy Systems Portfolio, and Accreditation processes. Highlights include retiring existing projects aimed at improving technological capabilities and student interventions, while introducing new initiatives for general education reform, diversity, and student-centered decision-making. Emphasizing continuous improvement, we detail the feedback process from the AQIP and next steps for maintaining accreditation and advancing academic quality.
