Monitoring of College Performance

The FVTC mission is delineated by eight statutory purposes embodied in the college's key offerings and used to direct and monitor its efforts. Since 1994, college performance related to each purpose has been systematically analyzed by a cross-section of staff and thoroughly reviewed by the Board of Trustees on an annual cycle.

This data-based evaluation process, known as Performance Monitoring, drives both important recognition of accomplishments and improvement strategies. The links below include the most recent reports approved by the Board of Trustees:

Monitoring of Strategic Directions

Fox Valley Technical College has established key measures of effectiveness with annual targets of performance for each of the Strategic Directions. Results of each measure are collected and analyzed annually to determine performance levels which are at, above or below the target goal. College leadership examines performance trends to identify areas of strength and for continuous improvement or refinement of the measure to better advance the achievement of the Strategic Direction. Environmental scanning efforts provide an ongoing assessment of external factors which may have an significant impact on the intent of the Strategic Directions related strategies or the measurable indicators of effectiveness.
