institutionalizedand last minute ABET visit preparation minimized.IntroductionThe assessment of student attainment of program outcomes as required by ABET accreditationcriteria presents challenges for engineering education programs. Criterion 3 of the 2007/2008criteria for accrediting engineering technology programs states that programs must demonstratethat student assessments are being used as part of a broad, documented continuous improvementprocess. In addition, multiple assessment methods are to be used to “triangulate” data to ensurethat program outcomes and objectives are being met. The Criteria goes on to suggest possibleassessment methods, including “student portfolios, student performance in project work andactivity-based learning; results of
