Through a performance accountability plan, institutions are required to establish and maintain performance standards, and use metrics to assess their effectiveness in tackling institutional and statewide higher education goals. Every year, the governing board of each public institution of higher education is required to submit a written report to the Maryland Higher Education Commission (MHEC) on the institution’s progress in attaining the objectives in the performance accountability plan. This summative statewide report includes highlights from Maryland’s public institutions’ submissions for the 2023-2024 academic year reporting cycle.  \nThe 2023-2024 Performance Accountability Report summarizes institution’s progress toward the three key goals of the 2022 State Plan for Higher Education. Last year institutions responded to the prompts related to the long-term equity gaps. Based on their answers, the Commission is interested in learning more about institutional strategies and initiatives to 1) increase the completion, 2) improve the success of transfer, 3) eliminate equity gaps, 4) equip graduates with employable skills, and 5) secure federal grants on student success.  \nIn short, the performance accountability metrics reflect that the institutions slowly recovered from the negative impact that the COVID-19 pandemic has had on enrollment and student success. However, many institutions have not returned to levels of performance seen since before the pandemic and are not on track to meet some of their established benchmarks before the end of their cycle. This year. seven public four-year institutions’ Managing for Results (MFR)/PAR metrics cycle concluded (see the detailed analysis in the institutional assessment section).The full institutional reports in the later part of this volume provide a more detailed summary of the efforts that the institutions made to meet the goals, objectives, and priorities of the State Plan.  \nOverview of the Accountability Report  \nThe annual Performance Accountability Report (PAR) provides an opportunity for the State, the Maryland High","cbCairnM292ZdFpg","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairnM292ZdFpg","pdf",7410865,448,"English","# Executive Summary\n## Overview of the Accountability Report\n## Overview of the Key Indicators: Enrollment Trends, Retention, and Completion Outcomes\n## Institutional Assessment\n## Responses to MHEC Prompts\n## Conclusion","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of Maryland’s Performance Accountability Report (PAR)?\",\"answer\":\"The PAR is an accountability mechanism requiring public colleges and universities to set performance standards, use metrics, and report progress toward statewide higher education objectives to the Maryland Higher Education Commission (MHEC).\"},{\"question\":\"Which areas does the report cover for the 2023-2024 cycle?\",\"answer\":\"It summarizes progress toward the three key goals of the 2022 State Plan for Higher Education and focuses on completion, transfer success, equity gaps, employable graduate skills, and federal grants related to student success.\"},{\"question\":\"How are institutions evaluated regarding COVID-19 impacts and performance benchmarks?\",\"answer\":\"The metrics indicate that institutions slowly recovered from negative COVID-19 impacts, but many have not returned to pre-pandemic levels and may not be on track to meet some established benchmarks before the end of their cycle.\"}]","2024 Performance Accountability Report Maryland Public Colleges and Universities - MSAR #709 | PDF",1792053265,1129]
