Non-Instructional Program Review

The Non-Instructional Program Review process provides comprehensive evaluation of departments and programs to complement the Northwest Commission on College and Universities (NWCCU) accreditation standards. The program review process implements frameworks for continuous improvement through self-study, data analysis, and external review and recommendation. This process provides necessary information for strategic planning and goal setting.

The SLCC Program Review Specialist, Jamilla Al-ani coordinates and assists departments and programs in completing their program review.
