The following Standards are Partially Met:
Standard 3. Program Effectiveness Measures. The Capstone Outcome Assessment results only included grades but no further explanation. A brief explanation of the Capstone Outcome Assessment results would be helpful to determine whether the goals were met.
Standard 13. Program-Specific Curriculum. While all competencies are addressed in the Program at varying levels, there are several areas within the curriculum that require modification/improvements to strengthen the Program curriculum. The full report identifying these curricular areas has been appended in the assessment.
Standard 16. Professional Development. The materials provided by the program did not support that all faculty teaching in the program, regardless of their primary program, are current with evolving issues and practices in health informatics, especially in the areas in which they are teaching.
