The university received an official response and acceptance of the Quality Initiative report from its accreditor on June 5th, which can be seen here. This marks the successful completion of this requirement for institutional reaccreditation, but more importantly the work done has benefitted the institution by developing the foundation for future data analytics efforts, including the development of three new dashboards.
The university submitted its Quality Initiative (QI) Report to the Higher Learning Commission (HLC), its institutional accreditor, on May 8th. You can also view both reports and find further information on the reaccreditation 2024-2026 webpage found here (SMU Password required) under the Open Pathway heading.
If you have any questions about the Quality Initiative, please contact Tracy Lehnertz, AVP for Institutional Effectiveness.
