CEPH Accreditation Criterion 2.7 for Public Health Programs recognizes the importance of assessment by requiring “procedures for assessing and documenting the extent to which each student has demonstrated achievement of the competencies defined for his or her degree program and area of concentration.” However, assessment process can be more effective if they go beyond assuring that at the end of the program competencies are met. Incorporating the assessment process into the educational program as an ongoing activity not only helps to identify deficiencies earlier in the educational program, but helps to improve the students’ understanding of the meaning and importance of competencies is their professional development.
