Strategic Analytics and Enterprise System Resources

Data Requests

Bristol faculty and staff can request access to Bristol’s Data Informed Decision (DID) Portal that provides longitudinal data reports and related information to assist with major projects at the college. The Student Success and Achievement Dashboards provide dynamic visualizations regarding student enrollment, progress and completions, academic program review, academic initiatives, and institutional surveys. For data that are not available via the DID portal or the dashboards, faculty, staff, and students can submit a request using the Data Request Form. Community members can submit a Public Records Request. If you have questions about data requests, please contact Jade Vieira, Assistant Director of Strategic Analytics, at Jade.Vieira@BristolCC.edu. 

Definitions

Bristol's Data Governance Team (DGT) supported the development of a Data Dictionary (dashboard) that serves as a collection of common terms, definitions, attributes, and data elements that are used at Bristol. The intention of the dictionary is to assist with data literacy and consistency across the institution. If you have questions or would like to contribute to the Data Dictionary, please contact Jade Vieira, Assistant Director of Strategic Analytics, at Jade.Vieira@BristolCC.edu.

Bristol's Strategic Planning process aided the development of a Master Acronym List that serves as a resource to foster communication between departments and across the college. If you have questions about this list, please contact April Lynch, Chief of Staff and Strategic Development, at April.Lynch@BristolCC.edu.

Inventories

Bristol uses Dynamic Forms to improve the efficiency of Bristol’s processes through electronic form routing and completion. To ensure the community can locate and access all college forms, a Dynamic Forms Inventory is available through the DID Portal. If you have questions about this inventory, please contact Scott Francis, Assistant Director, Survey and Forms Administration, at Scott.Francis@BristolCC.edu.
