Assessment Database

What is an Assessment Plan?

Assessment is an integral part of the accreditation for the University, as it determines whether or not the achievement plans and goals of each college and department are being met. Assessment contributes to curriculum re-design and enhancement,听student learning and continuous improvement of university programs and services.

A听plan reporter听(chair, director, dean, assistant or associate VP) from each department determines the specific objectives and outcome measures that comprise his/her听unit鈥檚 assessment plan for the academic year. During the plan period, data and/or results should be collected in order to report on the success of the plan. The reporter then enters the complete plan, results, and the appropriate supporting documentation into the assessment database where it can be viewed by assessment coordinators, accreditation staff and the听plan approver听(department head/supervisor) who may then verify that the assessment plan is satisfactory.

It is recommended that you retain a copy of your assessment plan in a Word document, from which you may then paste your results into the assessment database. Videos on how to navigate and enter data into the database are located here: Assessment Database online training.

Plan reporters may be asked to revise the assessment plan by their supervisor or an assessment coordinator in order to ensure that the plan provides the necessary information, is clear and well written. A checklist that is being used to evaluate assessment plans is provided at this link: Assessment Plan Checklist.
