How often do courses, programs, and the general education areas have to be assessed?
Assessment occurs on the schedule outlined in Course, Program and General Education Assessment. Courses should be assessed on the same cycle as that for the five-year master syllabus review. Thus, each course will be assessed at least once every five years. Each time a master syllabus comes to Curriculum Committee for review (whether for a major/minor change or for the five-year review), it should be accompanied by the Course Assessment Report Form showing assessment activity and results. Programs should be assessed every five years. General education areas are assessed every other year.
