Welcome to the Assessment Institute Website

The Assessment Institute, hosted by IUPUI and usually held in Indianapolis, Indiana, is the oldest and largest higher education event in the United States focused on assessment and improvement.  In 2021, we will once again offer a virtual conference and provide complimentary registration to members of the higher education community as our way of supporting colleagues facing travel restrictions and resource constraints associated with these challenging times.   Because we are offering complimentary registration in 2021, we anticipate several thousand registered attendees!  In 2020, registration exceeded 10,000 registered attendees. This record-breaking attendance truly positioned IUPUI’s Assessment Institute as the global gathering place focused on higher education assessment and improvement. 

The Assessment Institute is designed to provide opportunities for (1) individuals and campus teams new to higher education assessment and improvement to acquire fundamental knowledge about the field; (2) individuals who have worked as leaders in assessment and improvement to share and extend their knowledge and skills; and (3) those interested in assessment and improvement at any level or in any collegiate context to establish networks that serve as sources of support and expertise beyond the dates of the Institute.

Please plan to be with us virtually in October 2021!  If you would like to be included in our mailing list, please contact us at planning@iupui.edu.
