Annual Assessment Updates support NIU’s Program Review process. Each year academic degree programs must demonstrate and document the achievement of student learning outcomes and continuous program improvement. These annual reports build a database of content supporting Mid-Cycle Status Reports, Program Reviews and Accreditation reports.
Every academic degree program is required to submit an Annual Assessment Update at the end of the academic year.
Programs have three options for completing their annual updates.

Feel free to explore either of the Qualtrics links below as you make your choice. You can save your work; however, responses will not be recorded until you hit submit on the last page.
Programs may submit a copy of an annual report submitted to their disciplinary accreditor, provided this summary includes actions and decisions related to student learning outcomes. Please contact Accreditation, Assessment and Evaluation at aae@niu.edu for the submission link.
Annual assessment update reports will be due by June 1, 2024.
