In 2014 TMCC undertook the task to re-imagine the assessment process across the institution. The Student Learning Committee (SLC) was formed and populated with a mix of faculty, administrative, and staff representation. With participation from around the institution the SLC committee redesigned the assessment process away from the course-based subjective reporting that existed before to a data driven program-level assessment process.
TMCC’s assessment process is centered around the Annual Assessment Form. This form is used to assess all academic programs, general education outcomes, and co-curricular units. The Assessment Cycle at TMCC is as follows:
- August/September
Annual Assessment Kick-Off meeting
- October 1st
All programs submit their initial assessment plan to the SLC for approval
- May
All programs present their completed assessment plans to the SLC committee for review
