The Educational Excellence and Effectiveness (E3) team coordinates cycles of inquiry and assessment efforts across the university to support individual groups while also the mission of UNH to achieve high-quality education, commitment to research, and community outreach.

2. Create conditions where high-quality data and information are readily available to give evidence to 1) our assumptions, 2) needed change, 3) assessing the impact of changes, and 4) inspirations for future focused planning. This includes fostering awareness, ensuring access, and encouraging the use of data/information across UNH campuses.
3. Promote an integrated and aligned approach to educational excellence and effectiveness that is strengthened by a community that shares localized resources to solve common goals and challenges.
• Avoid Duplication: Prevent redundant efforts by avoiding data, information, and communication silos. When these are isolated, successes remain hidden. Instead, promote and amplify achievements and best practices.
• Common Data Metrics: Advocate for common data metrics that are regularly reviewed and accessible to everyone. Having shared metrics ensures consistency and transparency.
• Holistic Assessment: Enable an integrated approach to assessing the impact of various experiences on student success and overall student experience. Consider the whole picture rather than isolated elements.
• Collective Support: Facilitate ongoing discussions among stakeholders on how best to support student success for all students. Collaboration leads to better outcomes.
