<p>How did a quality awards program originally aimed at helping U.S. manufacturers become more competitive evolve to help school districts and other education institutions improve their performance, too? Long story, and it starts before 1999, when Congress expanded the eligibility of the Baldrige Awards to health care and education organizations.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>In fact, the Baldrige Performance Excellence Program (BPEP), housed at the U.S. Commerce Department's National Institute of Standards and Technology, began preparing for that expansion in the mid-1990s. Early efforts included outreach to education organizations to seek their input on the Baldrige Criteria for Performance Excellence and to develop other resources to help such organizations use the Baldrige systems framework to improve their performance. To learn more about that foundational work, I recently interviewed two former BPEP staff members, John Jasinski and Sue Rohan.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Jasinski served as an education specialist in the Baldrige office in Gaithersburg, Maryland, for the year starting in August 1994. At the time, he was on a sabbatical from a position at Northwest Missouri State University, where he was contributing to quality initiatives. He was also completing a Ph.D. program at the University of Nebraska at Lincoln that focused on performance excellence in higher education. Rohan also arrived in 1994 to serve BPEP as an education specialist. Previously, she had been quality improvement director for the University of Wisconsin’s 26-campus system.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Jasinski and Rohan were both recruited to help develop the first Baldrige Education Criteria for Performance Excellence (completed in 1995) and the first case study, which would provide a sample Baldrige Award application for education organizations. “It was a time to roll up your sleeves and dive right in,” said Jasinski. “We were creating an education model that did not exist, so it was a very dynamic period. We were trying to see how the Baldrige Program could aid the education community moving forward.”</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Jasinski and Rohan sought and aggregated input from education organizations and then shared the information with Curt Reimann, the program’s first director, who was overseeing the Education Criteria development. “We canvassed not just the country but also the international community. We tapped experts in assessment, in organizational dynamics, and in education performance through forums and dialogues,” said Jasinski. He noted that a key to the success of the effort “was creating a platform for collecting a wide array of input. With Reimann’s lead, we were systematic about how we wanted to collect input and from whom, creating dialogues throughout that year.”</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>According to Rohan, collecting input from a broad range of educators and organizations, including K-12 schools, technical schools, and colleges and universities, ensured a “diverse and well-rounded perspective.” She added that one challenge was the perception that business terminology in the Criteria was not applicable to education organizations. “In education, students and learning are the key focus, as opposed to customers. It was sometimes a challenge for educational leaders to see their roles in education systems as parallel to those of employees in businesses.” Another challenge, according to Rohan, was that in colleges and universities, faculty members have multiple roles in education research and community service. “We tried to address that in the Education Criteria,” she said.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><a href="https://www.nist.gov/baldrige/award-recipients">Nine education organizations</a> have received the Baldrige Award since 2001, and perhaps thousands more have used the Criteria to continually improve their performance. The role models include six public school districts, a public university, an undergraduate business school within a university, and a community college.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Asked about the future of <a href="https://www.nist.gov/baldrige/self-assessing/baldrige-sector/education">Baldrige in education</a>, Jasinski was optimistic: “The seeds that we planted in 1994 and 1995 certainly have taken root and blossomed over the past nearly 20 years. We’re seeing enlightened educators across the education spectrum, no matter what level or type of education—and we can look with pride at those that have adopted the Baldrige core values and the principles of performance excellence within their own organizations.”</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Jasinksi also stressed the continued relevance of the Criteria to organizations in his sector as a basis for hope of more use of the framework by education organizations: “There’s still a dire need out there for education organizations to continue to challenge themselves,” he said. “As we look at some of the issues that were present back in 1993 to 1995 and fast forward to today the issues are similar and perhaps more pointed. So I don’t think there’s ever been a better time for education organizations to reach out to the Baldrige Program and use the Education Criteria to better themselves.”</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Observing that the Baldrige Program’s <a href="https://www.nist.gov/baldrige/how-baldrige-works/baldrige-community">public-private partnership</a> is unique and “sometimes taken for granted,” Jasinski said he believes “that partnership can be reinvigorated and adopted.” He added, “The education community needs to continue to partner with the business community and the health care community. That was our vision back then [in 1994-1995]—that one day, we’ll all be speaking the same language across sectors—and we’re closer to it today in terms of the importance of processes and results, and cause and effect. If we all understand our challenges and how we can partner across sectors, we will continue to enhance the legacy of the Baldrige Program.”</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>After staying with the Baldrige Program until 2001, Rohan continues to apply Baldrige principles in her work today for Health Care Service Corporation, the largest not-for-profit U.S insurer. “We work with health care providers to ensure quality services for members enrolled in this insurance,” she explained. “We use Baldrige principles to plan for and measure health care outcomes and member satisfaction and other results.” </p>
|
||
|
||
<p>“There’s a real tie-in between what’s happening in health care and education,” she continued. “Health care is taking a larger share of state budgets, and educators are challenged to get an adequate share for education. So everyone is faced with doing more with less, and Baldrige principles are critical in fostering high achievement.” </p>
|
||
|
||
<p>As president of Northwest Missouri State University today, Jasinski has remained deeply involved in the Baldrige Program, serving in multiple roles as an examiner and (currently) a judge. Most important, he says, is his role as an ambassador of the Baldrige Program. Describing his year with the Baldrige Program as a personal growth experience for both him and his family (as he and his wife Denise then had young children), he likens his experience to that of the program itself, which he notes was “young at the time and continues to mature.”</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>“The Criteria have remained vibrant and cutting-edge,” he said. “This is a fantastic 25-year-old and ever-evolving program, with so many passionate and beautiful people focused on bettering our competitiveness and communities.” </p>

<div class="text-long">The Baldrige criteria for education has served as a foundation for many educational programs and it is unfortunate that so many educational cutbacks in funding have made the difference in not allowing it to reach more. I worked with Maryann Brennan as an examiner with some of the first education applicants, and then as a contributor to the case study for K-12 education.
|
||
With the use of Quality Tools, a lot of groundwork was laid in educating educators on the use of data, data decision-making processes, and refining strategies for increasing student achievement. If you look at education movements today, including project-based learning, benchmark assessments, etc...you see the influence of the criteria. Students creating goals and conducting their own conferences has always been a favorite of mine! Thank you...</div>
