AAC is expected to facilitate the assessment of goals for primarily non-academic, administrative units at the College. Further, it is expected that AAC\u2019s work will, over time, transition from being hands-on and directive to being more consultative and support-oriented. Under the leadership of the Director of Institutional Research and the VP for Policy, Research & Governance, AAC includes members from various Cores whose functions lend themselves to enterprise-wide perspectives, systems knowledge, assessment, and\/or data analysis.<\/p>\n

Somewhat mirroring the successful CWAAC<\/a> model, each AAC member is expected to convene a Core Effectiveness Committee (CEC) which will coordinates planning and assessment that is conducted by departments and other units.<\/p>\n
