D: Internal Audit

The goal of the Internal Audit (Appendix D) is to provide a look at the real-world impact of policies and procedures set forth in Appendices A, B and C.  In order, the content of Appendices A, B and C are:

  1. Admission and monitoring process
  2. Completer support and follow up efforts
  3. Documented dimensions of program capacity

As the admissions and monitoring processes, efforts to support completers, and dimensions of program capacity have already been described in the preceding appendices, the goal of the Internal Audit is to describe the internal quality control processes used to evaluate and improve program quality. To audit these processes, a purposeful sample of candidates was taken from completers/candidates from different academic programs and with different experiences and outcomes.  Policies outlined in Appendices A-C were reviewed in light of this sample of students and discrepancies discussed.  This analysis was used to provide feedback for program improvement during a Quality Assurance Team meeting.
