LSQIP Review Team
The LSQIP Review Team is a working team composed of faculty, staff and administrators at the college. This is a working team and this work consists of reviewing two portfolios a month (usually between 20-25 pages long) writing 3-5 strengths and opportunities for improvement comments that are aligned with the assessment criteria in the portfolio; submitting these comments to the Director for Institutional Research and Effectiveness via email two days prior to the monthly meeting; and meeting once per month, during the last week of the month for about an hour, to come to consensus on the comments for each program.

In addition to reviewing portfolios and providing feedback, this team reviews annual market and trend data and refers programs with low or declining performance trends to the In-depth Analysis Process.

The Review Team also reviews the LSQIP process on an annual basis to determine how it can be improved. In addition, the team will assess the success of implementing improvement projects, the ability of the college to provide sufficient resources to projects and the level of involvement by staff in the assessment and improvement process.
