Goals of OIRPE

Based on the overall goals set forth by NICC, the goals of OIRPE are to:

Develop and maintain consistent data practices and procedures.

Create a foundation for institution-wide continuous improvement across all levels through consistent assessment practices.

Build co-curricular and institutional-level assessment process that is both culturally relevant to NICC and best captures the attributes all NICC students should gain during their time at this institution and the unique type of activities that take place here at NICC that benefit students and enhance their educational experience but fall under the realm of co-curricular (or not for credit) activities.

 Build a foundationally-sound holistic institutional research, planning, and effectiveness department that can serve as a model for other Tribal College IR departments.

Strive for continual OIRPE departmental improvement based on assessment-driven data and application of results.
