Ensuring Academic Quality Accreditation Self Study at CEA’s Global Campuses
CEA Global Campuses, an integral part of the CEA Global Education Network, empowers your institution to internationalize your campus and connect your students with study abroad programs in diverse and engaging destinations around the world. The mission is to create opportunities for students to achieve global competence – as well as attain personal growth – through international education and cultural experiences. To ensure that the borderless education provided at each CEA Global Campus consistently meets the highest academic standards, CEA continually evaluates and improves these programs through a comprehensive Accreditation Self Study.
Continuous Improvement Continuously evaluating and improving its Global Campuses provides CEA with an invaluable opportunity for self-evaluation, self-criticism and self-directed improvement ─ all to the direct benefit of its students. As part of the Accreditation Self Study process, each CEA Global Campus program undergoes three levels of review: • Annual self-evaluation report • External site visit reviews by professionals • Program assessment by the University of New Haven (UNH) In addition, five integrated layers of faculty assessment provide both qualitative and quantitative information drawn from students and peers: • Class observation • Faculty course evaluation • Faculty self-assessment • Faculty development report • Faculty performance review This comprehensive process creates an effective cycle of feedback that is critical to instructional integrity and improved student learning. It also reinforces the vital ability of each CEA Global Campus to identify, train and retain excellent academic faculty.
