Research, Planning and Assessment
Atlantic Cape Community College's Institutional Research provides the fundamental support for the college–wide strategic assessment, planning, accreditation, and data–informed decision making in an effort to continuously benefit the College. Atlantic Cape consistently shares and reports various institutional data, including enrollment reports, number of degrees conferred, graduation rates and more, with internal and external stakeholders. This data may be used for:
- Planning and decision making
- State and federal compliance
- Continuous improvement in institutional effectiveness
- Promoting Atlantic Cape
Institutional Research, Assessment and Planning (IR) designs research studies and analysis for projects, such as program reviews, accreditation reviews, budget planning and gathers information for specific ad hoc inquiries. The IR team has access to campus–wide data systems and they maintain historical data for quick reference.
