Assessment Committee

The purpose of the MUASAA Assessment Committee is to provide centralized assessment of any and all things related to advising. This includes, but is not limited to divisional, departmental, and individual advising; a climate survey evaluating the support advisors receive from their respective departments, divisions, and the university at large; and provide post-assessments for MUASAA-sponsored programs and initiatives. The goal of the committee is to create a culture of assessment and data-driven decision-making around advising on ¾Ã¾ÃË®ÃÛÌÒ’s campuses. The role of the committee is not only to administer these surveys, but also to conduct data analysis and create divisional, departmental, and individual advisor reports after all members have been IRB trained.
