EDUC 6262 - Optimizing Quality and Productivity* (3 semester credits)

Optimizing quality and productivity in a higher education organization requires the ability to initiate and support positive change efforts. In this course, education professionals explore and discuss best practices for analyzing and evaluating organizational performance; identifying opportunities for improvement; and leveraging available resources, including technological resources, to support productive change initiatives. They also investigate strategies for achieving quality and productivity goals in the context of accountability, including defining outcomes aligned with the institution's strategic plan, establishing credible outcome measures, and demonstrating how to use outcomes data to improve programs and services.
