Quality and Impact at Scale

Due to scalability and resource constraints, career development efforts at a large higher education institution (10,000 students or more) can be intimidating to implement and assess. However, there are metrics beyond quantitative figures that can measure the impact and effectiveness of services and ways to engage in cross-campus partnerships to reach students across disciplines and backgrounds. This article focuses on assessment questions and methods that can be practically implemented in strategic efforts to collect and use critical data related to career development, experiential learning, and post-graduation outcomes.
