Assessment Committee

Charge:

Undertake initiatives to provide assessment guidance for university accounting programs. Specifically:

  1. Monitor and disseminate information on developments in assessment beyond the boundaries of traditional accounting education.
  2. Work with AAA staff to maintain the value of the assessment database developed by the 1999-2000 Assessment Committee.
  3. Work with the Innovation in Accounting Education Award Committee to determine whether a separate Innovation in Assessment Award is needed to encourage innovation in assessment. If the committees determine a separate award is warranted, develop and present a proposal to the Executive Committee for the creation and operation of an award program.
  4. Identify other initiatives that could assist leaders of accounting programs in meeting their assessment responsibilities.
  5. Provide a progress report to the Executive Committee liaison in time to be included in the agenda book for each Executive Committee meeting.
