The invention describes a method for evaluating educational programs
which, firstly, develops criteria which will address the strengths and
weaknesses of the educational program. The second step of the method is
to observe the criteria, chosen in step one, in the educational program.
The third step is to assign a numerical value to each of the criteria
observed in step two. The next step is to assign an overall rating to the
educational program based on the numerically valued criteria. The
personnel involved in the educational program can then decide what steps
in addition to the assessment can be done to improve or maintain the
educational program.
