Program Review & Annual Planning
̽»¨Ö±²¥ implements a Program Planning and Assessment process (PPA) on an annual cycle. Each designated program, service, office, and/or program is required to submit a PPA report that includes an Annual Review and Action Plan. An additional comprehensive review is due at least once every five years.
Whereas the overriding purpose is to ensure that regular assessment leads to the continuous improvement of programs, services, offices, and campuses, integrated planning, budgeting, and resource allocation provides the critical mechanism for prioritizing and providing scarce resources that can assist in fueling improvement.
