GVPlan: Contains the mission, vision, and associated strategic planning efforts for all divisions, colleges, and units. Key components of the strategic plans and overview of progress reports are viewable publicly on the Strategic Plan Search website.
Users with questions about navigating GVPlan can also refer to the GVPlan Quick Guide and/or the Frequently Asked Questions.
GVAssess: Contains student learning outcomes assessment for every undergraduate and graduate major, certificate, and stand-alone minor, as well as stand-alone badges, and student-centered outcomes for co-curricular units. It also houses relevant University Assessment Committee feedback. Student outcomes for all programs are viewable publicly on the Student Outcomes Search website.
GVStability: Contains enrollment and budget metrics for academic units. The Faculty Salary and Budget Committee (FSBC) uses GVStability to collect and analyze submitted unit stability reports. These reports contain needed metrics that are useful in determining unit health.
GVReview: Contains academic and co-curricular units' self-study reports that include analysis of student outcomes, updates on strategic plans, and analysis of units' resources.
