Missouri is most interested in data at the state level, and gathers institutional data to monitor state priorities for public higher education. The CBHE (Coordinating Board for Higher Education) has been able to modify its vision for higher education while also incorporating the governor's goals for higher education under the "Show Me Results" program, a government accountability initiative. The most recent strategic plan collects all of the goals for higher education under three broad values: access, quality, and efficiency. Within these areas, the CBHE and the Department of Higher Education collect data on the achievement of the statewide initiatives and goals by all the public institutions of higher education. Under the area of access, the CBHE gathers information on educational access and attainment of all Missourians. In terms of quality, the CBHE monitors four areas of information: student preparation, institutional environment, teacher preparation, and student performance. For efficiency, the CBHE engages in mission review and differentiation and examines the ways in which access and quality are achieved through technology-based delivery systems. In all, there remain 24 goals to which
the state is committed in its public postsecondary system. Baseline
data was collected in 1993 using the CBHE Survey of Missouri Higher
Education Performance Indicators, the Enhanced Missouri Student Achievement
Study (EMSAS), and other state and national surveys. Performance progress
on these goals is monitored in a report entitled "Statewide Public
Policy Initiatives and Goals for Missouri Higher Education." Misouri Data ElementsThe Missouri Department of Higher Education and CBHE officials regularly report results on the following data: ACCESS
