Develop and implement diversity and inclusion benchmarks to ensure responsibility and accountability. Benchmarking is the process of comparing the progress of one s organization to a determined measure. In order to appropriately assess UO s progress, three types of benchmarking can be utilized: 1. Benchmarking against ourselves 2. Benchmarking against peer and notable institutions 3. Benchmarking against accepted standards Reference: Reference: Global Diversity & Inclusion Benchmarks: Standards for Organizations Around World by O Mara and Richter.
The UO seeks to incorporate unbiased evaluations of the implementation of strategies and initiatives employed to meet institutional goals relating to diversity, equity and inclusion. The UO seeks to establish key metrics and reporting structures necessary to ensure accountability and an inclusive process of review. Evaluation can be based on different types of evaluation processes. Selected Examples: 1. Process Evaluation Program Operation (Assess program and activities.) 2. Outcome Evaluation- Program Achievement (Focus on outputs and outcomes to judge program effectiveness.) 3. Impact Evaluation- Form of outcome evaluation that assesses the net effect of program by comparing program outcomes. 4. Cost-Benefit and Cost Effectiveness Analyses Compare a program s outputs and outcomes with the costs (resources expended) to provide them.
