Assessment is integral to our success as an institution.
At SUNY Potsdam, assessment serves as “an institutional strategy, a core function of continuous improvement, and a means for faculty and staff to elevate student success and strengthen institutional health” (Kuh et al, 2015). Our assessment work is intended to enhance and improve faculty teaching and student learning, as well as the overall effectiveness of administrative units and the overall institution.

Campus Assessment Committee
The Campus Assessment Committee (PDF), comprised of faculty and staff from academic and administrative areas across the college, is charged by the Provost to examine assessment practices, recommend new and different strategies where change may be warranted, and provide counsel aimed at improving and enhancing the effectiveness of all assessment practices.
