I came with very little understanding of assessment. I am leaving empowered to help launch an assessment initiative in our college.
Jane Jacobson,
Iowa State University

I never realized how truly related value statements, mission statements, and assessment plans are to each other. I now have a much clearer understanding of the need to start with the big picture first (value and mission statement) before I can attempt to assess my program and services. Moving away from student satisfaction surveys and moving towards learning outcomes is the way to go!
