Using the “colleagues-helping-colleagues” model to strengthen institutional effectiveness.

The Institutional Effectiveness Partnership Initiative provides technical assistance through its Partnership Resource Teams. This colleagues-helping-colleagues model is available to colleges, districts, and centers interested in getting support on issues that matter most to them.

The Partnership Resource Team (PRT) component of the Institutional Effectiveness Partnership Initiative (IEPI) offers technical assistance to colleges, districts, centers and the system office in support of their self-identified Areas of Focus (AOFs). Using a positive “colleagues-helping-colleagues” model, the PRT process promotes collaboration to strengthen institutional effectiveness.
