Assessment

We invite you to enter the conversation about how we know our students are learning and growing in our classrooms through the questions we ask in our departments and programs. Our hope is that you will talk to your Academic Assessment Committee representative, be an active part of the conversation about assessing student learning, participate in creating improvements based on the assessment result, and engage the data that drive inquisitiveness about who our students are, how they learn, and where they go from here.

  • Career Program Assessment: Programs with terminal degrees such as radiologic technology, medical assisting, applied graphic communication, dental hygiene, nursing, veterinarian technology are accredited by outside accrediting organizations such as the Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic Technology, National Association of Schools of Art and Design, Medical Assistants Endowment (CRB-AAMAE) and Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP), Commission on Dental Accreditation, the Accreditation Commission for Education in Nursing, and The American Veterinary Medical Association’s Committee on Veterinary Technician Education and Activities.
