Harnessing College Data to Better Support Our Programs In 2016, we began looking at ways to harness our data to better support College programs and operations. A new Data and Analytics Strategy Framework was developed to provide the College with a data development roadmap for the next three to five years. The vision of our new Data and Analyt- ics Strategy is “Quality data to inform decisions, support programs, improve practice and maintain member and public trust.” For example, in the context of assuring and en- hancing physician competence, we would use data, as well as current literature and other evidence, to:  etter understand risk and support factors of B physician performance and practice outcomes I  dentify physician needs based on those risks and supports  evelop and evaluate our assessment pro- D grams for physicians  evelop and evaluate the education, support D and remediation of physicians Fast Fact As part of our Transparency Initiative, we began posting Specified Continuing Education or Reme- diation Programs (SCERPs) ordered by the Quality Assurance Committee on our public register.
