In today's academic environment of outcome based assessment, there is an increased need to maintain course continuity to ensure attainment of learning objectives and student outcomes. This is especially important for institutions that offer ABET-accredited programs, where they are required to address ABET Criterion #4 -Continuous Improvement. This can be especially challenging for schools that experience moderate faculty turnover, and/or heavily rely on adjunct instructors. In this paper we present a relatively simple End of Course Review (EOCR) process as the means to achieve these ends. More importantly however, the EOCR process instills a culture of assessment into all of our instructors, both junior and senior faculty.
