This workshop will identify approaches to align assessment and evaluation of civic engagement programs with your institution’s mission. Its goals are to identify resources to:

1.      Identify resources and opportunities to assess and evaluate

2.      Share next practices (the new ‘best practices’)

3.      Create opportunity for networking with a learning community.

Workshop Components include:

1)  Panel: Weaving Accreditation and Assessment Together
