Accreditation & Assessment

Our educator preparation program (EPP) understands that assessment is essential to continuous improvement. Equally important is the assurance that data collected from assessment is valid and reliable. When developing EPP-wide assessments and surveys, we employ a deliberate process that is grounded in the CAEP Evaluation Framework for EPP-Created Assessments and professional research standards, and that ensures what we are measuring informs how well we are preparing our candidates.

We also provide training for instructors and supervisors who score our candidates on assessments and we train our candidates so they know what is expected. In addition to EPP-created assessments and data collection, we rely on instruments and data collection from proprietary sources (e.g., ETS) and from partners (e.g. South Carolina Department of Education, College of Charleston institutional data).
