PRISM

PRISM is JSU’s information management system that stores and reports operational goals, objectives, strategies, methods of assessment/evaluation, and use of results.  Operational and learning goals, objectives and results are entered into this on-line system.  Annual reports with significant accomplishments included in PRISM provide summary data.  PRISM provides decision-makers with relevant reports, making JSU’s comprehensive system of continuous improvement visible, viable, and meaningful.  PRISM training will be provided periodically for new staff and as a refresher.
