Strategic Planning and Accreditation in Higher Education

Strategic planning is a key part of institutional effectiveness, but when it comes to accreditation many institutions are primarily concerned with developing responses to requirements and compiling the volumes of evidence needed to produce a compliance report. This can be a stressful time because the responses and evidence involve many people on campus and there is a limited amount of time to bring it all together. This is not really a time to think about anything but accomplishing the immediate task and preparing a great compliance report. However, you don't have to sacrifice continuous improvement just to prepare your accreditation report. You can compile your responses and evidence to create a fantastic report and use your strategic planning effort to support it. Planning, budgeting and assessment are all part of your compliance effort. With Strategic Planning Online you can manage accreditation compliance and integrate strategic planning, budgeting and assessment processes with it. Trying to prepare for accreditation without planning is like trying to take a test without studying. You might pass, but how do you excel? Integrating the strategic planning effort with budgeting, assessment and accreditation provides a real platform for continuous improvement and a roadmap for institutional excellence. Prepare an excellent compliance report and put your institution on the road to institutional effectiveness with Strategic Planning Online.
