Educational programs continuously collect student artifacts for assessing their three internally reported Program Student Learning Outcomes (PSLOs). Assessment findings inform the development of an Improvement Plan, which is submitted with the Assessment Report to the University Assessment Committee (UAC). The UAC reviews reports and plans and provides comments using the UAC Assessment Rubric. UAC compiles a University Assessment Report which is used to inform Strategic Initiatives.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Assessment rests on the values of service, collaboration, learning, evidence, integrity and improvement. The process involves developing an assessment plan, reviewing and revising the plan, collecting and analyzing data, reporting findings, developing an improvement plan, receiving feedback from the University Assessment Committee (UAC) and implementing improvements. The UAC will develop a report, and the data collected will inform strategic initiatives.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
