1Curriculum Development and RevisionSourced

The institution's President and teaching faculty monitor the effectiveness of the curriculum. When revisions are necessary, the institution favors using faculty as revision consultants. Faculty selected as reference sources are chosen based on the quality of feedback they provide on course strengths and weaknesses, as determined by the President. Faculty are encouraged to provide comprehensive, constructive feedback on every Curriculum Evaluation Survey.
