Assessment of Academic Programs
The assessment of academic programs provides assurances to government, students, employers and the public at large that degree programs offered by publicly funded institutions and by institutions under provincial degree granting acts meet established standards of quality prior to implementation.
The purpose of the program assessment process is to:
- improve, as required, the quality of academic programs; and
- provide assurances that programs meet pre-determined standards of quality.
The overall objective of the program assessment process is to ascertain the suitability of the program given its objectives, structure, institutional appropriateness, resources, and stated student outcomes and their relevance.
