On behalf of the ACPA Commission for Assessment and Evaluation (CAE), we are pleased to express our full support and endorsement of the revised assessment principles for best practices in assessment, A.C.C.L.E.R.A.T.E. CAE is an entity group of ACPA College Student Educators International representing staff and faculty committed to advancing assessment in higher education. Established in 1961, CAE has a long history of developing and promoting guiding frameworks (e.g. principles, standards, competencies) and offering professional development and training institutes. The resources CAE develops are designed to build the knowledge and skills needed to conduct high-quality, equity-centered assessment, and to translate assessment findings into positive change for students. The A.C.C.L.E.R.A.T.E principles not only reflect our core values (Equity, Scholarship, Mentorship, and Education) but also complement and strengthen the joint American College Personnel Association (ACPA) and National Association of Student Personnel Administrators (NASPA) Assessment, Evaluation, and Research (AER) competencies.
