Evaluating Institutional & Community Impacts

Opening Session:
Collaboratory Administrator PanelTuesday, September 26 | 2:00-3:30p ET Join us for a discussion with panelists from various higher education institutions who will discuss how Collaboratory – and more broadly, community engagement assessment, has shaped (or how it will shape) their institution. From specific types of partnerships to promotion and
tenure changes to strategic planning, campuses will share how they approach and think through impact.
Closing Session: Using Institutional Data to Understand the Impacts of Community Engagement Across the CountrySeptember 28 | 2:00-3:00p ET Research on the impacts of community engagement in higher education is still in an early stage, particularly when it comes to documenting engagement’s impact beyond the institution. In this webinar co-hosted with CUMU, scholars will present a study of community engagement impact using the Collaboratory database, which includes institutional data from almost 50 colleges and universities across the country. The presenters will share initial findings, which contribute to a baseline understanding of the landscape of engagement and its current and potential impacts. Presenters will also discuss the limitations of the study, and the
challenges and opportunities of using institutional data to study community engagement. Lead Presenter: - Dr. Paul Kuttner, CUMU-Collaboratory Research Fellow; Director of Programs,
Community Campus Partnerships for Health
