The new (eighth) edition of the Excellence in Higher Education Guide: A
Framework for the Design, Assessment and Continuous Improvement of
Institutions, Departments and Programs updates and extends the classic
EHE series. This edition includes a broad and integrated approach to
design, assessment, planning, and improvement of colleges and
universities of all types, as well as individual academic, student
affairs, administrative and services units. The framework included in
the Guide is adaptable to institutions and units with any mission, and
is consistent with the current directions within regional and
programmatic accreditation.
Based on the Malcolm Baldridge National Quality Award framework, this
bestseller is the definitive tool for college and university
administrators. The flexibility of the EHE model makes it appropriate
for use with administrative or academic departments, with administrative
or faculty councils or senate, and with programs, centers, or
institutes. Moreover, the framework can be used by an entire college or
university or with a particular department, division or campus.
The EHE program includes everything you need to conduct a
self-assessment workshop. The Guide provides facilitators with a solid
understanding of the EHE model, providing detailed guidance in each of
the seven areas:
-Leadership
-Purposes and Plans
-Beneficiary and Constituency Relationships
-Programs and Services
-Faculty/Staff and Workplace
-Metrics, Assessment and Analysis
-Outcomes and Achievements
The eighth edition series also includes a Workbook and Scoring
Instructions (available in print and electronic format) and
Facilitator's Materials (available only by download).
The Guide is also sold as an ebook bundle with the Facilitator's
materials.
