Fort Hays State University

The main function of AQIP is to provide a vehicle to continuous process improvement. As a means of facilitating reaction, response and feedback, we are providing the mass accumulation of information and data to the campus community.

2007 AQIP Quality Checkup Visit

Fort Hays State University hosted its AQIP Quality Checkup Visit January 30 - February 2, 2007. The purpose of this accreditation visit was for improvement. The visit was designed to accomplish the following five tasks:

Clarify questions about our Systems Portfolio (especially those identified opportunities for improvement)
Check status of changes from our Systems Appraisal and second Strategy Forum
Follow-up on Accreditation Issues (none have been identified for FHSU)
Review federal compliance documents
Assure FHSU's commitment to academic quality

Keep in mind, the United States Department of Education requires this visit to maintain eligibility for financial assistance.

FHSU received its AQIP Quality Checkup Report from the Higher Learning Commission in May 2007.

2006 AQIP Strategy Forum

Over the first three years we built indicators and collected data culminating in the Systems Portfolio and Feedback Report. The next step was a series of strategy forums to help determine future activities and direction: Summary of University Forums for the February 2006 AQIP Strategy Forum.

Resulting from Fort Hays State University's participation in the AQIP Strategy Forum in February 2006, new AQIP Action Projects were established. They are reflected in our 2007 Performance Agreement with KBOR and are listed below:
