The key goal entails the improvement of overall pledge rate, and this requires the support of data sources and data to achieve this milestone. Evidence can be obtained from sources such as people, document, and observations (Instructional Assessment Resources, 2011). One of the key data sources is the faculty members such as staff and department managers who have a first and view and perspective of the current situation in the Alumni affairs and overall college. Second, the alumni members are the next best sources because they have a wide range of experiences while under the Alumni, such as the conditions as well as their role in promoting the pledge rates. Third, students are also significant because they are recipients of the objectives and outcomes of the office of Alumni Affairs. Most colleges tend to employ the help of students to further data on third parties such as the alumni who had pledged to contribute donations. Fourth, the college’s internal documents such as articles and the website posts provide relevant data such as posts and events, which helps to follow through on commitment of pledge fulfillment. For example, the SNHU alumni have a network of 118,000 alumni which access events, publications, and stories (Southern New Hampshire University, 2019).

The first type of data that is relevant includes the age group of the Alumni embers, which helps to identify which group is either active or inactive in achieving pledge rates. The second type of data is the personal experiences and thus level of motivation of the alumni while attending reunions organized by the college. This data helps to gauge how best to encourage their attendance over the years and thus promote the achievement of pledge rates. The third type of data is the type of programs and the alumni members in such programs. This data helps to compare the pledge fulfillment rate for each program and thus identify which program is struggling and thus find ways to improve.
