ABOUT THE OFFICE OF ASSESSMENT
The Office of Assessment, led by Dr. Simi Gunaseelan, works closely with individual faculty, course coordinators, the Office of Academic Affairs, the Office of Experiential Education, the Office of Student Affairs, the Office of Student Success, Administrative Leadership Team, Outcomes Assessment Committee, Curricular Affairs Committee, Experiential Education Committee, Interprofessional Education Committee and OSCE Advisory Committee to promote continuous assessment of programmatic goals and student achievement.
Activities coordinated by the Office of Assessment include (but are not limited to):
- Managing and leading the School’s assessment activities and programmatic accreditation initiatives.
- Developing and implementing a systematic student learning outcomes assessment plan for didactic curriculum, experiential curriculum, co-curriculum, and interprofessional education.
- Working with faculty and administration in mapping, assessing, and auditing the didactic curriculum, experiential curriculum and co-curriculum to meet ACPE standards.
- Overseeing and coordinating programmatic assessments (i.e., research and clinical practice/services; student/alumni/faculty/preceptor satisfaction; faculty/preceptor development; student admissions, etc.).
- Identifying and refining appropriate instruments and methods to assess student achievement and curricular, co-curricular, and program effectiveness; developing feedback mechanisms to improve these measures and establish timelines for achievements of the outcomes.
- Developing and maintaining an electronic data warehouse of assessment information and reports, including Enflux and AAMS.
A variety of formative and summative performance measures are evaluated over the course of the curriculum. The hallmark assessments of curricular effectiveness and student achievement include OSCEs, Benchmark exams - internal and external including PCOA (NABP), Pre-NAPLEX (NABP), Pre-MPJE (NABP), Pharmacy Licensure Exams (NAPLEX and MPJE) and faculty/preceptor evaluations of students.
