Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP)

NOVA’s Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) is GPS for Success: Teaching and Learning through Advising. The GPS for Success is a plan to enhance students’ academic planning skills through improved academic advising. Through early engagement with advising specialists, and continued engagement with faculty advisors, students will learn the skills they need to chart their academic career and reach their chosen destination.

The QEP is an action plan to enhance student learning, and is part of the reaffirmation of accreditation process. After thorough discussions with teaching faculty, counselors, staff and students, NOVA chose to focus its QEP on the important knowledge gained through comprehensive and consistent advising.

The QEP Development Committee is developing the plan, which identifies student learning outcomes, resources, assessment strategies and an implementation timeline. Each campus and college unit is represented and has a voice in the development of the QEP, which aims to have a significant impact on student learning.
