Administrative Assessment

All administrative units are required to identify and assess objectives in support of the University’s mission and Strategic Direction. Objectives should be clearly aligned to the mission of the unit and focus on strengthening and improving critical functions, services and processes that impact stakeholder satisfaction, and/or contribute to the university’s ability to achieve its strategic goals.

Annual Assessment Using Nuventive

All administrative units must enter the unit’s mission statement, goals, objectives, methods and measures, results and analysis, and improvement plans into Nuventive.

Assessment Schedule

All administrative units must complete their annual assessment report in Nuventive by June 30th each year. We recommend the following schedule:

• Complete assessment planning early in the fall term (mission statement, goals, objectives, assessment measures, and achievement targets).
• Complete assessment results at the end of spring term or early summer (results, discussion, and analysis; conclusions; recent activities and improvements; and future improvements).
