On February 13th, the 32 NCSI Advisory Council reconvened with seven members present in order to complete work on the initial series of self-assessment instruments. We were hosted by Council Chairman Peter Lake at his 36th Annual National Conference on Law and Higher Education in Orlando, Florida.

Dr. Tanya Sharpe, our new research methodologist, facilitated a lively discussion that yielded positive results both for the impending launch of the tools and for our work in future years.

The pilot testing of the instruments, conducted by Dr. Sharpe and Daniel Carter, validated the process our team designed. The primary focus of the meeting was on discussing the delivery of this series of instruments. More news to come.
