Building a foundation for effective cocurricular assessment
[ Student Success Webinar Series ] Available on demand


Cocurricular activities play a crucial role in enhancing student learning, yet many institutions struggle with effectively assessing their impact. At the University of North Dakota (UND), unclear processes and ineffective assessments turned this vital work into a mere checkbox exercise that failed to provide meaningful insights or improve student outcomes.

Recognizing the need for change, they embarked on a mission to overhaul how they approached cocurricular assessment.

See how UND collaborated to define what constitutes a cocurricular experience, identified shared student learning outcomes (SLOs), and developed a sustainable plan for continuous improvement.

Why you should attend:

  • Gain new insights into the collaborative process of defining cocurricular experiences.
  • Explore potential challenges and promising practices when implementing new processes for documenting and assessing cocurricular learning outcomes.
  • And more!

"Watermark helps us keep the students we've worked so hard to recruit and see them across the finish line, which in turn improves the bottom line of the college."

"Everything was siloed in our college... no one really had access to everything. With Watermark, we were able to pull everything into one location, which gives faculty, staff, advisors, and leadership the same tool. They can see everything holistically."

"It is so nice to finally have one place to house all of this information, I can't tell you. It's like night and day. We love it."
