Learner Outcome Benchmarking
FY 2022-23 · 2022-04-01
Summary
Our schools have told us that longitudinal data about the student and being able to see the journey of the student, both the successful ones and the ones in distress, is critical. They are currently drowning in data, but this data is highly “siloed” both within a function of a program (say program management which often has 20 or more systems that create data) and between functions (admissions doesn’t “talk” or share data with program management). Programs need to be able to benchmark both internally and across schools to understand, not only how they are improving internally, but how they are doing against their peers.

Description
Our schools have told us that longitudinal data about the student and being able to see the journey of the student, both the successful ones and the ones in distress, is critical. They are currently drowning in data, but this data is highly “siloed” both within a function of a program (say program management which often has 20 or more systems that create data) and between functions (admissions doesn’t “talk” or share data with program management). Programs need to be able to benchmark both internally and across schools to understand, not only how they are improving internally, but how they are doing against their peers.
Description (French)
Nos écoles nous ont dit qu'il était essentiel de disposer de données longitudinales sur les élèves et de pouvoir suivre leur parcours, qu'il s'agisse de ceux qui réussissent ou de ceux qui sont en difficulté. Elles croulent actuellement sous les données, mais celles-ci sont fortement « cloisonnées », tant au sein d'une fonction d'un programme (par exemple, la gestion des programmes qui dispose souvent de 20 systèmes ou plus qui créent des données) qu'entre les fonctions (les admissions ne « parlent » pas ou ne communique pas de données avec la gestion des programmes). Les programmes doivent être en mesure d'effectuer des analyses comparatives à la fois à l’interne et entre les écoles pour comprendre, non seulement comment ils s'améliorent à l’interne, mais aussi comment ils se situent par rapport aux autres.
