Humber College
PA-6: Assessing Diversity and Equity

Institution has engaged in a structured assessment process during the previous three years to improve diversity, equity, and inclusion on campus. The structured diversity and equity assessment process addresses:

• Campus climate by engaging stakeholders to assess the attitudes perceptions and behaviors of employees and students, including the experiences of underrepresented groups;

• Student outcomes related to diversity, equity, and success (e.g., graduation/success and retention rates for underrepresented groups); AND/OR

• Employee outcomes related to diversity and equity (e.g., pay and retention rates for underrepresented groups).

The results of the assessment may be shared with the campus community and/or made publicly available.

An employee satisfaction or engagement survey is not sufficient to meet the campus climate or employee outcome criteria outlined above, but may contribute to the overall structured assessment. Employee satisfaction and engagement surveys are recognized in the Assessing Employee Satisfaction credit.

This credit applies to all institutions. 

An institution earns the maximum of 1 point available for this credit by engaging in a structured assessment process that addresses campus climate, student outcomes, and employee outcomes, and by publicly posting the results of the assessment. Partial points are available based on whether the assessment addresses campus climate, student outcomes, and/or employee outcomes, and whether the results are shared with the entire campus community and/or made publicly available, as outlined in the following table:
