METHODOLOGY
The Residential Alumni Survey is designed to capture and relay information on postgraduate outcomes. This data is used in support of internal and external review, as well as, assessment and reporting processes, including accreditation. Item content is developed and managed by the Office of Institutional Research in consultation with Career Services Offices, College Deans, Department Chairs and Program Coordinators. Core questions are common across campuses and assess educational goals, employment status, university/program satisfaction, general education skills, research skills and program-specific learning outcomes. Using primarily an online platform, the Residential Alumni Survey is administered every fall. An email invitation is sent from the Office Institutional Research followed by periodic reminder emails until data collection concludes mid-December. The below tables summarize the Student Learning Outcomes and Program Skills for the Prescott Campus (n = 145; 39.4% response rate).
