PR Dossier
Full PR Dossier Examples
The program review dossiers linked below were identified as being examples of well-written program summary narratives from various academic titles, ranks, and steps. Academics agreed to share their dossiers.
The Academic Assembly Personnel Committee believes the dossiers provide good examples of impact statements, balanced programs, and linkages to behavior and condition changes; however, there may be inaccuracies categorizing efforts in the Supporting Documentation section, or other minor problems, and recommends academics review the Guidelines for Preparing the Thematic Program Review Dossier (eBook).
