Note: The information collected in the Measures and Methods section of the UOEEE New Assessment Plan portal will be used to help complete the Assessment Methods and Measure sections of new program proposals being submitted to the Office of the University Provost and subsequently the Arizona Board of Regents for approval.
To assist units in the assessment planning process, we created a handbook: Program Assessment Handbook. Please refer to this handbook as you create your assessment plans and reports. To access this handbook, please authenticate using your ASURITE.
