For both the undergraduate and graduate programs, data has been collected for each learning outcome and summarized in reports to be used for outcome assessment. Reports of results (with graphs) are reviewed for trends.
Data is also benchmarked against other institutions based on Carnegie Classification (institutions comparable in size and degrees granted), Christian values, and level of accreditation. some local competitors and aspirant schools at the AACSB level of accreditation were specifically selected for benchmarking data. Results were positive.
UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS
The ETS Major field test has been primary external, direct, summative measure for business knowledge in the College of Business undergraduate program and offers benchmarking information. Data has been collected for several years showing an upward trend.
Signature assignments in the capstone Strategic Management Course have been used as the primary internal, direct, summative measure for all other undergraduate outcomes. Data from several years have been stable.
Skyfactor Benchworks Exit Interview Surveys (EBI) are the primary external, indirect, summative measure for all undergraduate outcomes and offers benchmarking information. Recently implemented, data from two years have been stable.
GRADUATE PROGRAMS
The ETS Major field test has been primary external, direct, summative measure for business knowledge in the College of Business graduate program. Data has been collected for several years. There is no trend clearly evident from these most recent data points.
Signature assignments in various courses have been used as internal, direct, assessment measures representing a combination of both formative and summative measures. Recently implemented, data has been stable.
