As Rogue Community College prepares to welcome the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU) peer evaluation team Oct. 26–28, we want to ensure that everyone participating in scheduled meetings with the evaluators feels informed, comfortable, and confident. It is our time to share with the visitors incredible stories: RCC’s, our teams’ and departments’ and our individual stories.
To help with this preparation, Institutional Effectiveness and Planning will offer a series of informal in-person information and FAQ sessions specifically designed for faculty, staff, administrators and others who have been invited to participate in meetings with the peer evaluators. These sessions may be of special interest to those who are ‘team captains’ for meetings or otherwise taking the lead in individual meetings with the evaluators.
These in-person sessions will provide an overview of who the evaluators are, what to expect during the meetings, the kinds of questions evaluators may ask, and how participants can best share their experiences and perspectives. There will also be plenty of opportunities to ask questions and clarify any uncertainties.
The goal is not to rehearse answers or prepare scripted responses. Rather, it is to help participants understand the process and feel comfortable engaging in open, honest and constructive conversations about RCC’s accomplishments, challenges, and commitment to continuous improvement.
Your voice and perspective are not just important parts of the RCC story: they ARE, together, the RCC story.
