This interactive session will provide guidance for faculty and staff tasked with developing outcomes assessment reports for SACSCOC accreditation. It will emphasize preparing reports due on May 31, 2026 that effectively communicate gains realized in student learning outcomes. This spring, the focus is on reporting results of the assessment methods, including analysis of the collected data, preparing action plans, and documenting evidence of continuous improvement.
This session is designed to be a highly practical, hands-on training, so participants are encouraged to bring their laptops/tablets with a draft document of their report. Dr. Olson will be available after the workshop for individual consultation as needed. Participants are strongly encouraged to attend the session that best fits the program they assess. However, any session can be attended, since much of the information covered will be relatively similar, although the focus will be slightly different.
This workshop supports the university’s goal to provide the necessary services, resources, and infrastructure to support the university’s strategic direction.
Presented by:
Dr. Lon Olson, Assistant Vice Provost for Program Accreditation and Assessment
Danielle Nied, Director for Division Assessment and Planning, Division of Student Success
