Reusing Accreditation Evidence for Assessment Reporting
By GREGORY TUYN
Published March 20, 2026
Designed for program leaders, this workshop on aligning and reusing assessment evidence focuses on identifying where existing materials, such as capstone rubrics, internships, portfolios and course-embedded assignments, can support both annual reporting and accreditation processes. Participants will work to identify, clarify and align their existing evidence to better support program goals and reporting needs.
By the end of the workshop, participants will leave with a reusable template that helps streamline this work. The template is intended to reduce duplication of effort while strengthening consistency and supporting more effective, evidence-based decision-making.
By the end of the session, participants will be able to:
- Identify examples of existing program-level assessment evidence (e.g., rubrics, capstones, internships, course-embedded assignments) and articulate the specific learning questions an artifact addresses.
- Analyze where assessment evidence is currently duplicated or underutilized across program assessment, accreditation, and reporting processes.
- Develop a reusable “evidence template” for at least one high-value assessment artifact that can be applied across multiple institutional purposes without additional data collection.
