What Is the Role of Faculty in Continuous Quality Improvement?
Faculty play an important role in CQI. Some serve on the CQI Steering Committee and are delegated the responsibility of heading one of the nine NW accreditation standards for preparing the institutional self-study document. Other faculty will work on subcommittees for each of those standards and will be instrumental in guiding the data collection and other processes that lead to the self-study. Other faculty have interactions with the University’s administrative and business processes, and CQI will therefore have relevance to them. Faculty may want to look at ways to integrate CQI with the teaching/learning process. Deans and department heads can play an active role in providing leadership for continuous quality improvement.
