Assessment in Action Conference

WMU Assessment in Action is an assessment conference held annually on the main campus of Western Michigan University. This conference provides the campus community with a place to come to learn more about assessment of student learning, to collaborate with colleagues on assessment issues, and to recognize and reward assessment accomplishments. Through this yearly conference, we strive to provide an outside perspective on assessment of student learning in order to help us all to expand our thinking and develop new perspectives in this area. You will find the handouts, presentations, programs, and resources from this annual event represented here.
