Making Assessment Courses Accessible to Practitioners and Students on Their Own Terms
As a university professor, I enjoyed teaching students from diverse backgrounds and areas of study. However, it became apparent that my impact was limited to a very narrow population - students enrolled in graduate programs at the University of Minnesota. Based on interactions with practitioners and students both domestically and internationally, I realized that there is a serious need to provide greater access to foundational and advanced assessment content. Thus, I have created a set of courses that can be taken fully online anywhere in the world and at any time. Additionally, taking my courses does not require you to be enrolled in a graduate program nor pay exorbitant tuition rates. You pick the classes you want to take on your own terms.
