Assessment is a continuous process of gathering, evaluating, communicating, and using information to improve learning and institutional effectiveness.
Assessment involves defining a program or unit’s mission, developing desired outcomes, monitoring progress towards those outcomes, communicating results, and using those results to make improvements. Assessment provides evidence of how well the university is meeting its objectives, helps identify areas where improvement is needed, and provides useful information to help guide decision making and resource allocation.

This website is intended to be an interactive forum for the university community. The website provides links to assessment resources, tools, guides, templates, plans, reports, surveys and more. It also provides a list of upcoming workshops and conferences, highlights AUC faculty contributions to assessment scholarship, and celebrates those departments and units which are using best practices in assessment. If you have information on assessment or teaching effectiveness that you would like to share with your colleagues, if you would like more information on assessment at AUC, or if you would like to schedule a meeting or training session, please contact us.
