How does SBVC ensure its institutional effectiveness?  Each year the Online Program Committee conducts a student satisfaction for online students.  Results from that survey are one piece of evidence of SBVC's institutional effectiveness.  Similarly, the Online Program Committee conducts a satisfaction survey for online faculty.  Although it is much shorter and less detailed that the counterpart for students, this survey, nonetheless, is an indication of how we are doing as an institution of higher education.  Below are the results of that survey for the spring, 2014 semester.  (SBVC's Online Program Committee will update this webpage each time the faculty satisfaction survey is deployed.)
