How to address the Program Review questions:
Begin with last year’s Program Review Roll over your answers and update where necessary Be clear and concise
9
Describe how the program supports the Bakersfield College Mission:
A straightforward description of what your program or service area does: functions performed, instructional areas included, and/or support services provided. Except in cases of reorganization or new programs/functions added, the description can be carried forward, unchanged, but you may edit this section if you’d like.
10
Creating Program Goals (Comprehensive):
Focus on the College’s mission and strategic goals. Goals should align closely to those of the College’s Goal statements should describe the expected performance of the student or specific behaviors expected from graduates of the program Goal statements should include action words and modifiers. Administrative unit goals should reflect upon how the area supports student success. Curriculum changes, shifting demographics or staffing needs, goals and objectives may shift during a three-year period. These changes should be addressed in the Program Review. Remember, resource requests are not goals; resources needed should be included in the action plan.
11
Progress on Program Goals (Annual)
This section will also “roll over” from last year’s report. If nothing has changed, you may leave it as is. Update any new developments or achievements of goals, timelines, or relevant information. Changes occur from year to year: curriculum changes, shifting demographics or staffing needs. You can revise or update your goals and objectives. Creation and Progression of goals will help in the justification of resources
