Benchmarking

B-BIT is a self-assessment evaluation tool that allows you to benchmark against the BLASST Sessional Staff Standards.

There are four ways to work with this tool – at the level of the:

Institution
Faculty or School
Departments, Unit or Subject convenor
Individual sessional staff member

“Benchmarking means making and using well-chosen and well-structured comparisons with other relevant institutions and organisations to identify areas that need improvement. It involves questioning how processes are performed, seeking out best practices, and implementing new models of operation.”
