The assessment plan consists of at least two identified outcome measures, a field measure and a course-embedded measure, for each competency at each level. BSSW students are evaluated at the generalist level while 60-credit hour M.S.W. students are evaluated at the generalist level and again at the concentration level (either AIP or ACP) M.S.W. advanced standing students are evaluated at the concentration level. View a Summary of the Program Assessment Plan.
The identified field measure is the Field Instruction Evaluation, completed by field instructors at the end of each field placement experience. The integration of students’ educational knowledge, values, skills and cognitive/affective processes are evaluated in the field environment, allowing for direct assessment of their professional behaviors and learning. A course-embedded measure (such as a test, paper or other assignment) is utilized for the second measure. The program developed nine unique course-embedded measures at the undergraduate level, nine at the M.S.W. generalist level, nine for AIP, and nine for ACP. The course embedded measurement occurs in key required courses throughout the program.
