Departmental Assessments

Each department within the division is responsible for assessing its own programs and services.  Department directors submit assessment plans to the vice president's office at the beginning of each two-year assessment cycle.  Members of the Student Affairs Assessment Committee work with division staff throughout the year, helping them to design and conduct their assessments in an effective and timely manner.
