Assessment

To ensure the realization of its mission, Piedmont University is involved in continuous assessment to measure, and to improve where needed, the quality of the learning experience. Since learning is not limited to classroom experiences, neither is assessment. Assessment is systematically administered throughout the University.

Assessment includes evaluation of departmental programs, evaluation of the general education requirements and evaluation of the overall University environment.

Academic colleges design and implement their own assessment procedures, following institutional guidelines, to evaluate the quality of their programs.

In addition, student and alumni surveys and other assessment techniques are regularly conducted in order to ascertain the overall quality of the educational experience at Piedmont.
