| March 16, 2022 | Assessment Breakfast | Dashboards as a Point of Collaboration Between Assessment and IR
As a matter of practice, regularly recurring requests for information that IR departments receive are best handled by automating the output into a dashboard. Assessment data is, by its cyclical nature, therefore extremely well suited to dashboarding. In this talk, our speaker will describe a planned program review dashboard that IR will produce to support the assessment needs across the campus.
