“For society to work we must be accountable for what we do and what we say.” (Dowdell, 2007). Assessment continues to grow in importance. Assessment, accountability and feedback are the cornerstones of the concept of ‘constant and continuous improvement’. As educators, we strive to deliver quality instruction that fits within a unified curriculum. We present the development and implementation experience of a comprehensive Information Systems assessment program. The use of the CCER IS Assessment Test and other assessment processes are discussed.

Keywords: assessment, assessment plan, curriculum, accreditation
