Southwestern is committed to a practice of evaluating and assessing the effectiveness of the College. Accreditation and State standards also require the College to have in place practices to evaluate and assess the effectiveness of all programs and the administrative operations. Measures of Achievement are one way the College demonstrates to the Accreditation agency, the State, the Board, the students, the Community and the staff institutional effectiveness.

The new measures were presented to the Board of Education in March 2009 and are currently in the process of being published on the web. 

 Each month the Board of Education materials will include the scheduled measures according to the submission schedule contained in the Board calendar.
