About
The NASPA Assessment, Planning, and Data Analytics Conference convenes scholars and practitioners to promote student learning and success by strengthening assessment, improving educational quality, and developing intentional persistence programming.
Institutional leadership must create an environment which builds capacity, as well as encourage an organizational culture that includes comprehensive assessment as part of strategic planning. Similarly, institutional leaders have a unique role to play in providing an environment and education that encourages student persistence, especially for under-served, low-income, adult, part-time, and minority students.
The NASPA Assessment, Planning, and Data Analytics Conference is designed to address these important issues in assessment and persistence, as well as to provide a forum for experienced professionals to advance their skills by discussing assessment and persistence with practitioners and policy-makers.
