Invitation to Participate - WKU Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) Focus Groups

Tuesday, August 30th, 2022

Dear Colleagues,

The Provost Office invites you to take part in a focus group discussion to provide perspectives on what should be WKU’s next Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP). Western Kentucky University will submit its 10-year documentation for reaffirmation of regional accreditation to the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) in 2025. Part of the reaffirmation process is the development of a Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP), which, “reflects and affirms a commitment to enhance overall institutional quality and effectiveness by focusing on an issue that the institution considers important to improving student learning outcomes and/or student success.”  As a part of our initial stage of determining the next QEP, we are reaching out to key stakeholders to obtain ideas and insights into possible QEP topics that can improve student learning and/or student success across campus. Your important input will be used to guide the determination and design of a comprehensive QEP project for WKU.

A round of faculty and staff focus groups will be conducted in September of 2022. Upcoming focus group opportunities are listed below. Please select the link below and complete the registration form for your chosen focus group based on your campus role.

After you complete registration you will receive an e-mail confirmation, please hold that time on your calendar. The meetings will take place in Wetherby 227 and additional materials will be sent to you prior to your scheduled meeting. Thank you for your interest and input.
