Events
The Assessment Capability Leadership Institute (ACLI) is for faculty and staff to develop and share their knowledge, understanding, and skills about program level assessment and then to leverage those skills to develop and implement processes and systems to assess outcomes in their programs. These projects are expected to create the conditions for thoughtful, sustainable, and meaningful assessment of important outcomes that inform improvement in program effectiveness and student success. The focus for ACLI 2021 in program level outcomes assessment is on examining and dismantling inequities.

The call for applications to serve as an Assessment Capability Fellow went out to all faculty including lecturers on March 23, 2021, with a closing date of April 8, 2021. Nearly 20 applications were received, and seven (7) faculty members were chosen and have confirmed their participation beginning June 2021 through June 2022. The Faculty Assessment Capability Fellows program promotes leadership in assessment through projects to develop sustainable best practices in collaboratively planning and implementing outcomes assessment for the purpose of continuous improvement for institutional priorities. Project options will include (but not be limited to) the assessment of High Impact Practices (HIPs), strategic plans, co-curricular impact on student success, and processes to support the assessment of institutional learning outcomes. The focus for the Faculty Assessment Capability Fellows in 2021-22 is diversity, equity, and inclusiveness in evidence-informed decision-making.
