Assessment

The College has developed a Plan to Assess Student Academic Achievement, in accordance with the requirements of the Higher Learning Commission: A Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools. The plan ensures the College has specific learning outcomes for each of its degree programs and validates that students earning degrees have achieved those outcomes. Validity measures include instructor assessment, certification examinations, national standard examinations, employer surveys, success of student transfer and evaluations by external professionals. The results of the assessment efforts are used to improve instruction as necessary to guarantee that our students can succeed in the workforce or in further education.
