Recommended by IEC: April 8, 2020
Endorsed by EC: May 6, 2020
Approved by BOR: October 6, 2020

In 2020, CMI’s Board of Regents approved a new set of Institutional Key Performance Indicators that indicate how well the college is progressing in meeting its mission. Included are Institution-Set Standards (ISS) that serve as the institution’s minimum expectation for each KPI and Stretch Goals that show the college’s aspirations for continuous quality improvement.

In addition, the college establish a process for monitoring and remediation as follows:

Institutional Research will prepare an annual report on KPIs, which will be shared with the IEC and posted to the CMI website in July. The Human Resources KPIs section of the report will initially be drafted by the Human Resources Committee and submitted to Institutional Research for inclusion. The Finance KPIs section of the report will initially be drafted by the Budget Committee and submitted to Institutional Research for inclusion. As part of the annual report on KPIs, student achievement KPIs must be disaggregated based on gender; English level at admission; and Majuro, Ebeye, or Outer Islands high schools. Disaggregation by high school will be included in a report for internal use only. Where achievement gaps are seen, IEC will recommend action plans to the appropriate operational units with a report to EC and include remedial action in institutional planning recommendations. This requirement is in accord with ACCJC standard I.B.6: “The institution disaggregates and analyzes learning outcomes and achievement for subpopulations of students. When the institution identifies performance gaps, it implements strategies, which may include allocation or reallocation of human, fiscal and other resources, to mitigate those gaps and evaluates the efficacy of those strategies.”

Where KPIs are the responsibility of one or more specific departments, the Chair of IEC will notify those departments that have not met the ISS that they must include plans for improvement in their program reviews and annual reports. If these KPIs fall 10% or more below the ISS or have been below the ISS for three or more years, the department head will be required to submit a special report to the IEC and appear before the committee to discuss it. Where responsibility for the KPI is spread across the institution, the IEC will recommend action plans and include remedial action in institutional planning recommendations. 

To ensure broad dissemination and discussion of the results, IEC will hold an annual KPI workshop open to all CMI community members.
