suggested KPIs and all others).
Target Benchmark refers to the anticipated or desired outcome (goal or aim) for each KPI.
Actual Benchmark refers to the actual outcome determined when the KPI is measured or calculated.
Internal Benchmarks refer to comparable benchmarks (actual benchmarks) from inside the program (like data results from previous years or
data results from other departments within the same college).
External Benchmarks refer to comparable benchmarks (actual benchmarks) from similar programs that are outside the program (like from
similar programs that are national or international).
KPI Analysis refers to a comparison and contrast of the benchmarks to determine strengths and recommendations for improvement.

Academic Advising is an opportunity to exchange information designed to help students reach their educational and career goals. Advising is a shared responsibility between an adviser and the student. Ultimately, it is the responsibility of the student to make decisions about his/her life goals by creating a plan to reach those goals.
Academic advisers can assist in this process by helping the student understand options, determine resources and, when necessary, identify alternatives.
While students are urged to keep parents informed of plans and progress, the advising relationship uniquely is between the academic adviser and the student
