Recommendations/Goals (what we can do)
Continue to maintain focus on improving the academic aspects of the program by supporting teachers, tutors, and Tutoring, SALC, and Listening Labs coordinators.
Revamp and expand New Student Orientation, including pre-arrival and continuing throughout the students’ first session.
Develop ongoing orientation seminars and integration opportunities to the campus and community to be offered to continuing students.
Continue to enhance our client-centered focus in all areas of program.
What other ways can we make improvements?
