2014-2015 PLANNING PROCESS
DATE:
October 7, 2013
TO:
Program Review Plan Managers
FROM:
Marie Eckstrom and Howard Kummerman
SUBJECT:
Program Review
We are writing with additional information for the 16 programs that will create Program Review Plans and meet with the
Program Review Committee. If you have not already done so, please schedule a day and time to meet with the committee in
November. Contact Rebecca Rayas at x3412 or e-mail rrayas@riohondo.edu.
 Program Review Plans are due on Friday, October 18, 2013 regardless of when your program will meet with the
Program Review Committee.
The following information will be helpful as you complete your Program Review Plan.
 By this time, you should have already started to create your Program Review Plan. If not, please immediately log in to
the software and either start a new or roll over a previous plan. The template is similar to that used for Program Plans.
Please follow the help text to see additional requirements of programs creating program review plans. Once the
software template for your 2014-2015 plan has been created, the IRP office will place your data into the plan. Program
data is also available on the public drive here P:\Planning\Program Review Data 2014-2015 in Access Rio Portal on
the IRP Channel. You will have data for five years when available. Information on how to log-in and create a plan is
located here – Click here
 A variety of resources are available to help you complete your Program Review Plan.
 Facilitated support of your plan team meetings upon request by Howard Kummerman – x3412
howard.kummerman@riohondo.edu
 Assistance analyzing program data upon request by the Institutional Research & Planning Office – x3412
 Pre-review of plan prior to completion by appointment with Marie Eckstrom and Howard Kummerman.
Please contact Rebecca Rayas at x3412 to schedule an appointment.
 Institutional Planning Help Line 562-463-6644
 Training materials and other resources – Click Here
 When your Program Review Plan Team meets with the Program Review committee, expect a very friendly and
collegial process. The committee members will ask questions, get clarifications, give commendations, and
together with the program team, suggest program-level and institutional-level recommendations.
 Your input is vital as we continually seek to improve the planning process. Immediate feedback may be given on the
Institutional Planning Feedback Form on the IRP website, via e-mail to Howard Kummerman or any member of the
IEC, and during your participation in the Planning Process Survey that will be distributed in Spring 2014.
 The Institutional Research and Planning (IRP) website has been updated with information that will support the
planning process. Go to http://www.riohondo.edu/strategic_planning/ for updated information.
