    Program Review

    Program Review Overview

    Program Review is a planning process which creates a document that shows the current state of a unit, how a unit is connected to the college and community and explains how a unit wants to move forward in the next few years.

    We are happy to announce that an Abbreviated Program Review has been approved through the shared governance process at both Merritt and Laney colleges. The review is being administered via Microsoft Forms and is designed to be quick and simple to complete. This will be for THIS YEAR ONLY, allowing all programs/units on campus to focus on the Merritt and Laney College merge and the Peralta Transformation.

    For this year only all programs/units are being asked for resource requests only. There are no other questions from the standard program review. There is also no distinction between annual and comprehensive program review. All programs/units are only requesting resources.
