Video Discussion: Assessment and Accreditation Consulting Assignment Instructions
Overview
Making continuous improvements and achieving and maintaining accreditation are two essential goals of today’s higher education institutions. Leaders in these institutions need to determine ways to assist stakeholders in all academic and non-academic departments with the development of knowledge and skills necessary for carrying out assessment processes that lead to program and service improvements and documentation of accreditation compliance. One way is to provide department personnel with professional development opportunities that allow them to acquire or strengthen such knowledge and skills. Doing this demonstrates the desire of leadership to offer support and resources to empower these stakeholders to be able to perform their assessment and accreditation responsibilities.
