Retaining students is a key initiative for institutions. This webinar will highlight how to incorporate BCSSE and NSSE data to help inform your institution's retention efforts. In this webinar we will discuss research findings relating engagement and retention as well as explore ways in which NSSE and BCSSE data can be used to supplement retention efforts on your campus. We will also highlight examples of how other institutions have used their NSSE and BCSSE data in their retention plans. Finally, we will encourage participants to think of their own retention efforts and how they might use their NSSE or BCSSE to help improve their efforts. Attendees should make sure they have copies of both the BCSSE and NSSE surveys as this session will identify specific items from each. Copies of the surveys can be found at nsse.iub.edu. We ask that you submit any specific questions you have or barriers you have encountered when using BCSSE and/or NSSE data to help with retention efforts. Please list questions &/or topics that you would like to see addressed in the Webinar in the box below. Additional questions can be raised via the chat feature during the Webinar.
This succinct, 15-minute session details strategies for promoting NSSE and provides tips on encouraging faculty, administrators, and students to get involved in raising awareness of NSSE on campus. Specific promotions from past NSSE participants are highlighted, and useful resources from NSSE's website are shared.
This webinar highlights how CIC member institutions can make the most of their updated NSSE results; considers ways to use campus results to accentuate institutional distinctiveness, explore retention, and feature accreditation self-studies; and explores member questions about NSSE reports and online tools for additional report creation.

Based on recent research presented at the AIR Annual Forum in spring 2014, this webinar will focus on answering the following questions: a. What kinds of incentives do participating NSSE institutions typically use? b. Which ones appear to be most effective at increasing student participation? c. What impact do campus promotional campaigns have on response rates ?d. For those that invest in promotional campaigns, how do they implement them and who is involved?
Join NSSE Director Alex McCormick in this conversational webinar to discuss the recent update to the survey and questions from participating campuses including: 1. Why did you change the survey? Are more changes planned? 2. Why did you replace the NSSE benchmarks and how do I make comparisons between past NSSE and updated NSSE results? 3. How can I use NSSE results at the school or department/program level? 4. How can smaller schools get the most out of NSSE? Alex will also share his views about emerging accountability demands and current issues in assessing educational quality. He is especially interested in hearing and responding to user questions and concerns. Please tell us what's on your mind and submit your questions via the webinar registration form. Questions can also be raised during the webinar via the chat feature, but we encourage advance submissions.
Join us for a step-by-step walkthrough of your NSSE Institutional Report 2014. We will review the redesigned reports and provide general strategies for utilizing and disseminating your results.
The most commonly reported use of NSSE results is for accreditation. NSSE's Accreditation Toolkits, designed for all regional and several specialized associations, map NSSE processes and items to the requirements and standards for each accreditor. The toolkits are available on the NSSE website. This webinar shows how NSSE items map to accreditation standards and discusses the potential for using NSSE data in institutional self-studies and quality improvement plans. The updated survey provides new items, topical modules, and more actionable Engagement Indicators, relevant to accreditation. If your self-study and site visit is fast approaching, or 5 or more years out, this session will be useful for your accreditation team.
