Assessment and its Role in Accreditation

In this paper, we describe assessment processes at three computer science programs accredited by the Computing Accreditation Commission (CAC) of ABET. Assessment is a vital component of the CAC/ABET criteria to evaluate how programs assess their objectives and use this information to improve their programs. The paper offers some guidelines for successful assessment systems as well as sound advice on how to avoid some of the problems that may arise.
