Postsecondary Data Partnership (PDP) Data Discovery & Decision Support

The PDP Data Discovery & Decision Support Course explores using the PDP to ask critical questions and use intersectional data to explore previously unanswerable questions, identify institutional performance gaps, assess progress toward closing those gaps, and leverage the PDP to support decision-making. The course structure provides a foundation for participants to interact with colleagues and mentors and collaboratively navigate the ever-growing demands for better data to inform better decisions and advance the use of equity-minded language/approach to the work. By offering the course virtually, participants can access the content when it suits their schedule, along with additional live sessions for real-time engagement, expert insights, live chatting, and Q&A. A summary of these live sessions will be available for those unable to attend the live sessions. In addition, an on-demand “Ask the Expert” option will be available for individual questions.

This process is often used in institutional accreditation as evidence of quality processes and in efforts to measure and improve student learning. This workshop provides participants with an understanding of the CQI process, using the PDP, constructing an improvement plan, and creating a strategy to share this process and findings with institutional stakeholders to create buy-in and effect change.
