Use Success Planning to assign tasks that
improve career and college data.
Link tasks to activities where possible.

a student completed a workshop, create a
post-workshop survey and assign the survey
as a task.
• Utilize the built-in tasks.
Schedule planner reports to regularly assess
progress.

Theme 2: Focus on outcomes (Your Turn)
DDDM is a culture
To be truly effective, DDDM
needs input from everyone.
Everyone needs to see value
and be invested in collecting
and analyzing data.
Staff need to openly
collaborate and take action
based on data.
In some cases, this requires a
huge attitudinal shift. Be
prepared to facilitate.
Involve multiple staff
members from various roles
in the development of data
processes.
Collaborate to make the best
possible decisions.
Use data for decisions and
information, not just
compliance.
