IN PARTNERSHIP WITH AACN

In partnership with AACN, Skyfactor has designed sophisticated, user-friendly benchmarking assessments basedon CCNE standards for accreditation. Using these standards, our nursing assessments provide you with the insightyou need to make targeted, meaningful changes backed by hard data.

Commitment to Assessment // Your institution partnered with Skyfactor Benchworks to participate in the AACN/Benchworks UndergraduateNursing Education Exit Assessment. Assessment is a process to collect information to better understand the perceptions of your institution’seffectiveness from the viewpoint of your campus constituents. Assessment information answers important questions such as “How effective isour program?” or “Where should we focus resources to improve?”

Focusing only on your institution’s performance can be limiting; questions such as “Is improvement possible?” are difficult to answer withoutbenchmarking information. Benchmarking, a key feature in this project, provides comparisons between your institution and others (externalbenchmarking), between successive years (longitudinal benchmarking), and between groups (internal benchmarking). Benchmarking allows youto identify comparative strengths and weaknesses.

Closing the Assessment Loop // Successful assessment projects combine data collection, analysis, action planning, and implementation ofactions. Unfortunately, most assessment projects end after studying the assessment results without creating and implementing actions forimprovement. We recommend the following steps:

IMPLEMENT ACTION PLAN //Assign a person(s) to each action and hold

them accountable for their area ofresponsibility.

CONDUCT ASSESSMENT // Using a surveyinstrument that reliably measures areasimportant to your profession is a critical

first step.

CREATE ACTION PLAN //Develop an Action Plan for program

improvement based on these results.

ANALYZE INFORMATION //Carefully review the analysis (both written andonline) to understand issues facing yourprogram and where your program should focusits attention.

Skyfactor provides two reporting platforms for your convenience.

Skyfactor Benchworks’ Written Report // Skyfactor Benchworks’ written report is segmented into four major areas:• Confidentiality Statement: (Located on the first page of this written report.) All results are confidential and may be reproduced and

utilized only for continuous improvement purposes on your campus.• Assessment Summary: This section contains supplemental information to assist you in understanding the results such as a glossary of

terms, list of survey questions and factors, description of the statistical analysis used, external benchmarking groups, and survey responserates.

• Executive Summary: Skyfactor recommends you begin your review of the results with this section. All the major components are pulledtogether to give an excellent overview of your institution’s current performance, external benchmarking comparisons, longitudinal trends,and areas on which to focus resources for improvement. Be sure to identify individual factors key to institutional improvement and anypopulations (e.g., gender, race) with specific issues in order to target actions as necessary.

• Individual Factor Analysis: Once key factors are identified, explore them in-depth to better understand their current and pastperformance. In addition, detailed information of the factor’s scaled questions is reported. Actions should be targeted towards scaledquestions which are more tangible and directly actionable.

Skyfactor Benchworks’ Online Reports // If you would like to delve deeper into your assessment information, Skyfactor Bechworks’ OnlineReports provides additional information (e.g., population characteristics) and interactive tools (e.g., filtering and cross-tabs) to enrich yourunderstanding of the results.

Summary // Assessment and benchmarking helps focus your time and financial resources for greatest impact and moves your institution from adebate about what is wrong to a discussion of possible solutions. Closing the assessment loop by creating and implementing improvementactions guarantees forward progress.

Below is a compilation of terms used in this report.

% Total // Relative size of the respondent population.

All Institution Mean // Mean of the aggregated results of all participating institutions.

Carnegie Class Mean // Mean of the aggregated results of the institutions in your Carnegie Classification. If the number of institutions in theclass is two or fewer, the results will not be reported to protect anonymity.

Categorical Questions // Categorical questions are closed-ended questions that ask the respondent to choose an answer(s) that best representtheir situation. Typical categorical questions are age, gender, and class standing

Contribution // The “contribution to the variance” as explained through the regression analysis. Essentially, this refers to the amount eachpredictor contributes to the overall variance. The larger the contribution, the larger the impact the factor has on the dependent factor.

Factor // A group of statistically-related questions which describe a broad concept more completely than just a single question.

Goal // The goal value, set by Skyfactor, is a value of 5.50 on a 7-point scale or a value of 75% on the performance scale. Different performanceindicators are given based on its relationship with the goal. indicates that the goal was met. indicates the goal is within reach. indicatesthe performance is well below goal.

Mean // The average (the sum of the values divided by the number of respondents) of the item.

Mean Range // The difference between the minimum mean (Min) and maximum mean (Max) across populations provides a range of meanswhich gives a measure of the variation of the data.

N // Number of respondents to that item.

Negative Correlation (NEG) // The relationship between an independent factor and the dependent factor where the factors move in oppositedirections. In other words if the factor’s mean decreases, then we would expect the mean of the overall performance factor to increase.

Non-Factor Questions // Scaled questions that are relevant but not statistically related to a factor. Results of these questions are reportedindividually.

Not a Predictor (NP) // A factor which does not contribute to the variance thus is not a predictor of the dependent variable. Because this factoris not a predictor, changes to its performance will not impact the dependent factor.

Not Reported (NR) // In order to protect participant anonymity, Skyfactor will not report population data when the number in that population isfive or fewer. In order to protect institutional anonymity, Skyfactor will not report performance values for the Carnegie Class if the number ofinstitutions in the class is two or fewer.

Performance // Mean scaled from 0-100%. The translation is: “1” on the 7-point scale equates with 0% performance, “4” equates to 50%performance, and “7” equates to 100% performance.

Predictor // Predictor status of the factor as calculated from the regression analysis. The strongest predictor is labeled as “1st”, the secondstrongest is “2nd”, and so forth. We label factors that do not contribute to the variance as “NP” (non-predictor).

Rank // Sorting the institutions from highest performance to lowest performance, your institution’s rank is determined. Note, your institution’sdata is included when we calculate your institution’s ranking within that comparison group (e.g., your institution’s Select 6 rank is out of 7institutions since your institution is included in the rank).

Response Rate // The number of participants who completed the assessment divided by the total number of participants attempted to survey.

Scaled Questions // These survey questions rely on a 1-to-7 Likert scale with "1" indicating either strong disagreement or being verydissatisfied and "7" indicating either strong agreement or being very satisfied. This type of question is designed to gather perceptions of theparticipants across a variety of content areas.

Select 6 Mean // Mean of the aggregated results of the Select 6 institutions.

Standard Deviation // The measure of the variation in response values within that item. Small standard deviations indicate consistency amongrespondents. In these cases, any intervention taken can be the same for all populations since respondents are responding similarly. Largestandard deviations indicate wide variability among respondents. A deeper understanding of which populations are creating this variability isnecessary before an intervention can begin. May be abbreviated as Std Dev in reporting.

Statistical Significance (Stat Sig) // The indication of a statistical difference in means. Statistical testing is conducted between yourinstitution’s current results and the results from previous years to determine if differences in the means are statistically significant. indicateswhere your institution performed statistically higher; indicates no statistical difference; and indicates where your institution performedstatistically lower. Statistical testing is also conducted between populations and between other institutions when applicable.

Factors, also called constructs, are groupings of related scaled questions. Skyfactor utilizes factors for two important reasons:• Reduces complexity: The number of questions in this assessment is large making analysis based solely on survey questions complex

and unwieldy. The number of factors is significantly smaller, bundling the details and reducing the complexity of analysis;• Strengthen regression: The focal point of Skyfactor’s analysis, Recommendations for Improvement (based on a multi-variant linear

regression), is weakened if too many variables are used. Factors, a significantly shorter set of variables, strengthen the regressionanalysis.

Factor Analysis // Factor analysis is a statistical technique used to derive factors. The basic assumption of factor analysis is that underlyingdimensions, or factors, can be used to explain more complex phenomena. In measuring perceptions, the object is to combine several questionsthat, in concert, capture the notion for a particular topic, such as “Facilities”.

Factor Reliability // Once it has been determined that a set of scaled questions do share a relationship and therefore constitute a factor, there isan additional (and necessary) statistical test to assess the psychometric soundness of the factor. We rely on Cronbach’s Alpha to determine theinternal consistency or reliability of any factor. A Cronbach’s alpha of zero would mean that there is no internal consistency at all, i.e., subjectsare likely to respond with any value on any of the questions in a factor with no discernible pattern. An alpha of 1 would mean that every subjectanswered every question comprising the factor consistently. This is a highly unlikely event. An alpha of .5 is considered acceptable; an alpha of.7 good; alphas in the .8 to .9 range are exceptional.

Below is a list of this assessment’s factors and the corresponding Reliability (Chronbach’s Alpha).

Skyfactor is dedicated to providing relevant statistical analysis which removes the guesswork from the reader. Making decisions on assessmentinformation without fully understanding if the results are statistical, could lead to decisions with unintended consequences. In this report, weprovide results from regression analysis and statistical testing of means.

Regression Analysis (Identifying Predictors) // A correlation establishes the relationship between two variables. Regression analysis, bycontrast, allows us to determine the relationship between an assment’s dependent factor (in this assessment, Overall Program Effectiveness) andmultiple independent factors (e.g., facilities, environment, etc.). If we suspect, for example, that Overall Program Effectiveness is related to a setof independent factors, we could simultaneously assess the extent to which all of these independent factors predict Overall ProgramEffectiveness. Beyond that, we can determine the exact weights for each of the independent factors, which allows us to identify which of theindependent factors is most important, which is second, and so forth. We can further determine how much each independent factor increasesour ability to predict Overall Program Effectiveness.

The first step in regression analysis is to identify which of the independent factors is the best predictor of Overall Program Effectiveness. Next,the analysis takes into account (controls for) the effect of the first predictor and then determines the second best predictor. This is an iterativeprocess, which controls for all prior factors, then identifies the next predictor (e.g., the 3rd most important, 4th most important and so on).

Examining the output of this process allows us to identify the most important predictors among the dependent factors, those with more modestexplanatory power, and finally those factors that contribute nothing to our understanding of the Overall Program Effectiveness.

We should note that while the factors in this latter category have no explanatory power, in a practical sense, they contribute greatly to ourdecision-making ability. Knowing what is not related to -- or predictive of -- Overall Program Effectiveness can be a valuable insight. Presumably,one would not allocate scarce resources to improve elements that are not related to Overall Program Effectiveness. Conversely, if we know thebest predictors of Overall Program Effectiveness, investment in those elements would pay high dividends.

In reporting results of regression analysis, we discuss the “contribution to the variance”. Essentially, this refers to how well we can explain acertain outcome (improving Overall Program Effectiveness) by using the factors. The higher the contribution, the stronger our conclusions abouthow well the factors we have identified help us understand what predicts a given outcome (in this case, improving Overall ProgramEffectiveness).

Statistical Testing of Means (T-Test) // The t-test determines whether the means of two data sets are statistically different from each other.The result of the t-test is a p-value that indicates how likely those results could happen by chance. A difference is identified as “significant” if theprobability that the result could have occurred merely due to chance is less than 5%. All differences reported are significant at the p < 0.05levels or better. Many are significant at the p < 0.01 (less than 1% of the results could have occurred due to chance) or p < 0.001 (less than0.1% of the results could have occurred due to chance) level.

Statistical testing is conducted between your institution’s results and the aggregate of your external benchmarking institutions (Select 6institutions, Carnegie Class institutions, and all participating institutions). We also conduct statistical testing between populations and betweensubsequent years. In this report, we indicate if the test was statistical to p < 0.05 but do not provide individual p-values; p-values can be foundin Skyfactor Benchworks’ Online Reporting.

Benchmarking is the process of comparing your institution's performance against other institutions. National benchmarking assessments allowstandards to be set and, through those standards, your institution can calibrate its effectiveness. Throughout this report (and Skyfactor's OnlineReporting), you will find comparisons of your institution's results against those of your external benchmarking institutions (Select 6 institutions,Carnegie Class institutions, and all participating institutions). As you review these results, note the areas where your institution’s outperformsyour external benchmarks; these are areas to celebrate! The opposite may also be true; you may find areas where your institution underperformsyour external benchmarks. This indicates that others may have a better approach or better implementation and improvement is possible.

Select 6 Institutions // A very important aspect of this benchmarking assessment is the comparison of your institution's results against four tosix peer or aspirant institutions (regardless of the number of institutions selected, Skyfactor refers to this group as "Select 6"). In this report, weprovide the aggregated information from these institutions. If you want to view an individual Select 6 institutional performance, please accessSkyfactor Benchworks' Online Reports; however to protect anonymity, institutional names are not linked to results. Your Select 6 institutions are:

NOTE: Your institution was allowed to choose from institutions who participated in 2013, 2014 or 2015; the data collection year is noted besidethe institutions name.

Ashland University (2015) Cedarville University (2015)

Lourdes University (2015) Northern Michigan University (2015)

University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire (2015) Urbana University (2015)

Carnegie Classification Institutions // The institutions in your Carnegie Class compose the second external benchmarking group. The CarnegieClassification of Institutions of Higher Education is a framework for classifying, or grouping, colleges and universities in the United States. Theprimary purpose of the framework is for educational research and analysis, where it is often important to identify groups of roughly comparableinstitutions. The classification includes all accredited, degree-granting colleges and universities in the United States that are represented in theNational Center for Education Statistics Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS). For this assessment, Skyfactor used the 2010Basic Carnegie Classifications to determine your institution’s classification. All institutions outside the United States are combined into an“International” Carnegie Class. For a complete list of the institutions in your Carnegie Class, please refer to Skyfactor Benchworks' OnlineReports.

YOUR CARNEGIE CLASSIFICATION

Baccalaureate Colleges--Diverse Fields

Includes institutions where baccalaureate degrees represent at least 10 percent of all undergraduate degrees and where fewer than 50master's degrees or 20 doctoral degrees were awarded during the update year. (Some institutions above the master's degree threshold arealso included) Excludes Special Focus Institutions and Tribal Colleges.

There are 24 institutions in this comparative group.

All Institutions // The third external benchmark is the combination of all participating institutions. This provides a national norm or nationalstandard. For a complete list of all participating institutions, please access Skyfactor Benchworks' Online Reports.

There are 273 institutions in this comparative group.

Survey response rate (also known as completion rate or return rate) refers to the percentage of the surveyed population who responded to thesurvey. It is calculated by dividing the number of survey participants by the number of people in the sample. For example: if 1,000 surveys wereattempted and 257 were completed, then the response rate would be 25.7%. Below are the response rates for your institution and your externalbenchmarking institutions. We have also included response rates by a few key categorical/demographic questions. Response rates for all othercategorical/demographic questions can be found in Skyfactor Benchworks' Online Reports.

If your Action Plan for institutional improvementincludes improving Overall Satisfaction and if your program is performing below any of these external benchmarking groups, this information canbe used to convince staff that higher performance is possible. If your institutional performance is higher than any of these groups, use this tocelebrate!

Below is a comparison of your institutional results to your Select 6, Carnegie Class, and all participating institutions for the indicator’s dependentvariable, Overall Satisfaction, and the other factors associated with this indicator. A designates factors where your institution performsstatistically higher than that external benchmarking group; a designates factors where your program is statistically lower in performance; anda represents factors that are statistically equal with that external benchmarking group.

Arguably the most important piece of the analysis is Recommendations for Improvement In order to improve Overall Satisfaction, it is necessaryto know which factors have the greatest impact. Improving factors with high impact should lead to an improvement in Overall Satisfaction. Thefirst chart shown below is the current performance for Overall Satisfaction. If this performance is below your desired level, identify the highimpact factors (listed below) and focus your institution’s improvement efforts on those factors.

The final piece of the analysis is Longitudinal Trends which supports continuous improvement. The term “continuous improvement” means anever-ending effort to improve programs and processes through several incremental improvements rather than one overwhelming innovation.The term “continuous assessment” means conducting assessment at regular intervals (Skyfactor recommends annual assessment); continuousassessment informs continuous improvement.

Longitudinal trends analysis, an artifact of continuous assessment, is the key to evaluating your institution’s continuous improvement efforts.Understanding trends is necessary to determine whether the actions conducted resulted in a successful outcome. If your institution’s currentperformance falls short of expectations, review the actions conducted on the top predictors and make adjustments.

Below is the longitudinal trend for the indicator and top predictors for the most recent iterations of this assessment. If your institution did notparticipate continuously during these iterations, Skyfactor extrapolated between successive iterations. A designates years where yourinstitution performs statistically higher than the current year; a designates years where your program is statistically lower in performance; anda represents years that are statistically equal to the current year.

The second piece of the analysis picture is External Benchmarking. Throughout this report and in Skyfactor’s Online Reporting, Benchworkscompares your institutional data to the aggregate of your external benchmarking groups. If your Action Plan for institutional improvementincludes improving Overall Learning and if your program is performing below any of these external benchmarking groups, this information can beused to convince staff that higher performance is possible. If your institutional performance is higher than any of these groups, use this tocelebrate!

Below is a comparison of your institutional results to your Select 6, Carnegie Class, and all participating institutions for the indicator’s dependentvariable, Overall Learning, and the other factors associated with this indicator. A designates factors where your institution performsstatistically higher than that external benchmarking group; a designates factors where your program is statistically lower in performance; anda represents factors that are statistically equal with that external benchmarking group.

The final piece of the analysis is Longitudinal Trends which supports continuous improvement. The term “continuous improvement” means anever-ending effort to improve programs and processes through several incremental improvements rather than one overwhelming innovation.The term “continuous assessment” means conducting assessment at regular intervals (Skyfactor recommends annual assessment); continuousassessment informs continuous improvement.

Longitudinal trends analysis, an artifact of continuous assessment, is the key to evaluating your institution’s continuous improvement efforts.Understanding trends is necessary to determine whether the actions conducted resulted in a successful outcome. If your institution’s currentperformance falls short of expectations, review the actions conducted on the top predictors and make adjustments.

Below is the longitudinal trend for the indicator and top predictors for the most recent iterations of this assessment. If your institution did notparticipate continuously during these iterations, Skyfactor extrapolated between successive iterations. A designates years where yourinstitution performs statistically higher than the current year; a designates years where your program is statistically lower in performance; anda represents years that are statistically equal to the current year.

The final analysis for the factor is its performance over time. Longitudinal trends support continuous improvement and are the key to evaluatingthe success of your institution’s action plan for this factor. If your institution’s current performance falls short of expectations, review the actionsconducted and make adjustments.

If your institution participated in two or more iterations of this assessment, a longitudinal trend is plotted. If your institution did not participatecontinuously, Skyfactor extrapolated between successive iterations. A designates years where your institution performs statistically higherthan the current year; a designates years where your program is statistically lower in performance; and a represents years that arestatistically equal to the current year.

Factors, a composite of scaled questions that explain a larger concept, are utilized in Skyfactor Benchworks’ reporting to reduce complexity andstrengthen the analysis. Skyfactor provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Work and Class Size, in this section of reports.

You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below adesired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., currentperformance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additionalinformation can be found in Skyfactor Benchworks’ Online Reports.

If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which aremore tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding;additional information can be found in Skyfactor Benchworks’ Online Reports.

The final analysis for the factor is its performance over time. Longitudinal trends support continuous improvement and are the key to evaluatingthe success of your institution’s action plan for this factor. If your institution’s current performance falls short of expectations, review the actionsconducted and make adjustments.

If your institution participated in two or more iterations of this assessment, a longitudinal trend is plotted. If your institution did not participatecontinuously, Skyfactor extrapolated between successive iterations. A designates years where your institution performs statistically higherthan the current year; a designates years where your program is statistically lower in performance; and a represents years that arestatistically equal to the current year.

Factors, a composite of scaled questions that explain a larger concept, are utilized in Skyfactor Benchworks’ reporting to reduce complexity andstrengthen the analysis. Skyfactor provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Course Lecture and Interaction, in this section of reports.

You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below adesired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., currentperformance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additionalinformation can be found in Skyfactor Benchworks’ Online Reports.

If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which aremore tangible and more directly actionable.

The final analysis for the factor is its performance over time. Longitudinal trends support continuous improvement and are the key to evaluatingthe success of your institution’s action plan for this factor. If your institution’s current performance falls short of expectations, review the actionsconducted and make adjustments.

If your institution participated in two or more iterations of this assessment, a longitudinal trend is plotted. If your institution did not participatecontinuously, Skyfactor extrapolated between successive iterations. A designates years where your institution performs statistically higherthan the current year; a designates years where your program is statistically lower in performance; and a represents years that arestatistically equal to the current year.

You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below adesired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., currentperformance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additionalinformation can be found in Skyfactor Benchworks’ Online Reports.

If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which aremore tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding;additional information can be found in Skyfactor Benchworks’ Online Reports.

The final analysis for the factor is its performance over time. Longitudinal trends support continuous improvement and are the key to evaluatingthe success of your institution’s action plan for this factor. If your institution’s current performance falls short of expectations, review the actionsconducted and make adjustments.

If your institution participated in two or more iterations of this assessment, a longitudinal trend is plotted. If your institution did not participatecontinuously, Skyfactor extrapolated between successive iterations. A designates years where your institution performs statistically higherthan the current year; a designates years where your program is statistically lower in performance; and a represents years that arestatistically equal to the current year.

Factors, a composite of scaled questions that explain a larger concept, are utilized in Skyfactor Benchworks’ reporting to reduce complexity andstrengthen the analysis. Skyfactor provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Classmates, in this section of reports.

You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below adesired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., currentperformance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additionalinformation can be found in Skyfactor Benchworks’ Online Reports.

If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which aremore tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding;additional information can be found in Skyfactor Benchworks’ Online Reports.

The final analysis for the factor is its performance over time. Longitudinal trends support continuous improvement and are the key to evaluatingthe success of your institution’s action plan for this factor. If your institution’s current performance falls short of expectations, review the actionsconducted and make adjustments.

If your institution participated in two or more iterations of this assessment, a longitudinal trend is plotted. If your institution did not participatecontinuously, Skyfactor extrapolated between successive iterations. A designates years where your institution performs statistically higherthan the current year; a designates years where your program is statistically lower in performance; and a represents years that arestatistically equal to the current year.

FACTOR COMPOSITION FACTOR PERFORMANCE EXTERNAL BENCHMARKING LONGITUDINAL TRENDS

The final analysis for the factor is its performance over time. Longitudinal trends support continuous improvement and are the key to evaluatingthe success of your institution’s action plan for this factor. If your institution’s current performance falls short of expectations, review the actionsconducted and make adjustments.

If your institution participated in two or more iterations of this assessment, a longitudinal trend is plotted. If your institution did not participatecontinuously, Skyfactor extrapolated between successive iterations. A designates years where your institution performs statistically higherthan the current year; a designates years where your program is statistically lower in performance; and a represents years that arestatistically equal to the current year.

Factors, a composite of scaled questions that explain a larger concept, are utilized in Skyfactor Benchworks’ reporting to reduce complexity andstrengthen the analysis. Skyfactor provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Core Competencies, in this section of reports.

You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below adesired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., currentperformance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additionalinformation can be found in Skyfactor Benchworks’ Online Reports.

If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which aremore tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding;additional information can be found in Skyfactor Benchworks’ Online Reports.

There are many pieces of analysis that, when combined, create a comprehensive picture of your institution’s performance for this factor. The firstanalysis to examine is the current performance of the factor. This information, coupled with understanding of individual population perceptions,external benchmarks, longitudinal trends, individual scaled question performance, and other institutional information or assessment is invaluableto constructing an effective Action Plan for improvement.

The final analysis for the factor is its performance over time. Longitudinal trends support continuous improvement and are the key to evaluatingthe success of your institution’s action plan for this factor. If your institution’s current performance falls short of expectations, review the actionsconducted and make adjustments.

If your institution participated in two or more iterations of this assessment, a longitudinal trend is plotted. If your institution did not participatecontinuously, Skyfactor extrapolated between successive iterations. A designates years where your institution performs statistically higherthan the current year; a designates years where your program is statistically lower in performance; and a represents years that arestatistically equal to the current year.

Factors, a composite of scaled questions that explain a larger concept, are utilized in Skyfactor Benchworks’ reporting to reduce complexity andstrengthen the analysis. Skyfactor provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Technical Skills, in this section of reports.

You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below adesired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., currentperformance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additionalinformation can be found in Skyfactor Benchworks’ Online Reports.

If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which aremore tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding;additional information can be found in Skyfactor Benchworks’ Online Reports.

Factors, a composite of scaled questions that explain a larger concept, are utilized in Skyfactor Benchworks’ reporting to reduce complexity andstrengthen the analysis. Skyfactor provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Core Knowledge, in this section of reports.

You are likely referencing this section to better understand this factor due to: 1) this factor is a high predictor; 2) this factor is performing below adesired level; 3) this factor is of special interest to your institution; or 4) this factor is an indicator. Through this analysis (i.e., currentperformance, external benchmark comparisons, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additionalinformation can be found in Skyfactor Benchworks’ Online Reports.

If improving this factor is a goal for your institution, actions should be targeted toward the factor’s scaled questions (see list below) which aremore tangible and more directly actionable. Analysis for these scaled questions is provided in this section allowing for sufficient understanding;additional information can be found in Skyfactor Benchworks’ Online Reports.

The final analysis for the factor is its performance over time. Longitudinal trends support continuous improvement and are the key to evaluatingthe success of your institution’s action plan for this factor. If your institution’s current performance falls short of expectations, review the actionsconducted and make adjustments.

If your institution participated in two or more iterations of this assessment, a longitudinal trend is plotted. If your institution did not participatecontinuously, Skyfactor extrapolated between successive iterations. A designates years where your institution performs statistically higherthan the current year; a designates years where your program is statistically lower in performance; and a represents years that arestatistically equal to the current year.

FACTOR COMPOSITION FACTOR PERFORMANCE EXTERNAL BENCHMARKING LONGITUDINAL TRENDS

Factors, a composite of scaled questions that explain a larger concept, are utilized in Skyfactor Benchworks’ reporting to reduce complexity andstrengthen the analysis. Benchworks provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Overall Satisfaction, in this section of reports.

This factor is an overall measure of the indicator, Satisfaction. If improving this indicator is a goal for your institution, actions should be targetedtoward the factors that are predictors of this indicator and their questions which are more tangible and more directly actionable.

Analysis for the scaled questions that compose this measure is provided in the section allowing for sufficient understanding. Through thisanalysis (i.e., current performance, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additional information canbe found in Skyfactor Benchworks’ Online Reports.

FACTOR COMPOSITION

There are many pieces of analysis that, when combined, create a comprehensive picture of your institution’s performance for this factor. The firstanalysis to examine is the current performance of the factor. This information, coupled with understanding of individual population perceptions,external benchmarks, longitudinal trends, individual scaled question performance, and other institutional information or assessment is invaluableto constructing an effective Action Plan for improvement.

The final analysis for the factor is its performance over time. Longitudinal trends support continuous improvement and are the key to evaluatingthe success of your institution’s action plan for this factor. If your institution’s current performance falls short of expectations, review the actionsconducted and make adjustments.

If your institution participated in two or more iterations of this assessment, a longitudinal trend is plotted. If your institution did not participatecontinuously, Skyfactor extrapolated between successive iterations. A designates years where your institution performs statistically higherthan the current year; a designates years where your program is statistically lower in performance; and a represents years that arestatistically equal to the current year.

FACTOR COMPOSITION FACTOR PERFORMANCE EXTERNAL BENCHMARKING LONGITUDINAL TRENDS

Factors, a composite of scaled questions that explain a larger concept, are utilized in Skyfactor Benchworks’ reporting to reduce complexity andstrengthen the analysis. Benchworks provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Overall Learning, in this section of reports.

This factor is an overall measure of the indicator, Learning. If improving this indicator is a goal for your institution, actions should be targetedtoward the factors that are predictors of this indicator and their questions which are more tangible and more directly actionable.

Analysis for the scaled questions that compose this measure is provided in the section allowing for sufficient understanding. Through thisanalysis (i.e., current performance, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additional information canbe found in Skyfactor Benchworks’ Online Reports.

There are many pieces of analysis that, when combined, create a comprehensive picture of your institution’s performance for this factor. The firstanalysis to examine is the current performance of the factor. This information, coupled with understanding of individual population perceptions,external benchmarks, longitudinal trends, individual scaled question performance, and other institutional information or assessment is invaluableto constructing an effective Action Plan for improvement.

Factors, a composite of scaled questions that explain a larger concept, are utilized in Skyfactor Benchworks’ reporting to reduce complexity andstrengthen the analysis. Benchworks provides an in-depth analysis of the factor, Overall Program Effectiveness, in this section of reports.

This factor is an overall measure of the indicator, Overall. If improving this indicator is a goal for your institution, actions should be targetedtoward the factors that are predictors of this indicator and their questions which are more tangible and more directly actionable.

Analysis for the scaled questions that compose this measure is provided in the section allowing for sufficient understanding. Through thisanalysis (i.e., current performance, and longitudinal trends), a thorough picture of the factor should emerge, however additional information canbe found in Skyfactor Benchworks’ Online Reports.

FACTOR COMPOSITION

Q100 // Would you recommend the nursing school to a close friend?

Q101 // Did the nursing school provide a positive academic experience?

Q102 // Were you challenged to do your best academic work?

Q103 // Were you motivated to do your best academic work?

Q104 // Was the information you learned applicable to your future career?
