# Program Assessment Review and Rubric

The Program Assessment Review is conducted every two years by the Peer Review Committee to evaluate the quality of your program’s assessment work in Nuventive. Using a standardized rubric, reviewers assess the clarity of learning outcomes, the appropriateness of assessment methods, the interpretation and use of results, and the documentation of action plans and resource needs. This process supports continuous improvement and helps programs align with institutional expectations.

<p class="callout success">**Tip:** Use rubric feedback to revise outcomes, strengthen methods, and improve documentation in future cycles.</p>
