Primary audience is the chancellor/president and
other institutional leaders.

Committee recognizes others will use the data management
system.

Broad-based review of the data is encouraged.

Aspirational peers.

Creation of peer groups specific to each user.

Possible Future Initiatives
Student-Athlete Experience, Rules Compliance,
Academic Support and Inclusion
Student-Athlete Experience

Two potential components for future inclusion into
IPP:

Health and safety survey.

Student-athlete experience survey.
Student-Athlete Experience

Health and Safety Survey:

Almost half of all Division I athletic trainers completed
pilot survey.

Data collected in this survey cannot be found
elsewhere in the medical community.

Has the potential to be extremely helpful to health care
practitioners and institutional leaders.
Student-Athlete Experience

Student-Athlete Experience Survey:

Over 30 institutions agreed to participate in the
voluntary student-athlete experience survey.

Over 3,000 Division I student-athletes completed the
pilot survey.

NCAA research staff is compiling results.
Rules Compliance Evaluation

The Committee on Institutional Performance discussed
the possibility of including a once-in-four-years rules
compliance review as a best practice within IPP.

Committee is engaged with the National Association for
Athletics Compliance and the Collegiate Commissioners
Association Compliance Administrators groups to
develop this best practice.

Will be provided to membership after the committee’s
July 2015 meeting.
Academic Support Services Evaluation

Academics Subcommittee recommended receiving
feedback from the following groups regarding whether an
academic support services review should be a required
element of IPP:

Committee on Academics;

NCAA Division I Council;

FARA; and

National Association of Academic Advisors for Athletics.
Inclusion Review

Review of data included within the Students and
Leadership categories should not serve as a Title IX
review for Division I institutions.

Data should be used to provide insight into gender
equity, recognizing that additional questions and
information is needed.

Once-in-four-years inclusion review as best practice.
Call to Action

Inform campus leaders IPP will launch June 1st.

Organize broad-based group to review data.

Identify point person on campus.

Manage SSO administrator accounts on campus.
