Episode 267: Beyond Accreditation Toward Continuous Improvement

Continuous improvement is most effective when it becomes part of an institution's culture rather than an exercise driven by accreditation. By embracing ongoing reflection, data-informed decisions, and collaboration across campus and industry, institutions can strengthen academic programs, improve student outcomes, and adapt to evolving workforce needs.

On this episode, Harika Rao, Associate Dean in the College of Business Management at Lynn University, discusses how institutions can build a culture of continuous improvement beyond accreditation while using data and stakeholder feedback to strengthen academic quality and workforce relevance.
