To carry out assessment and accreditation processes in higher education, practitioners need to be aware of types of assessments, and assessment processes, that academic and non-academic departments of institutions of higher education use to demonstrate compliance with accreditation standards. Universities and colleges create their own assessment processes to guide this work. One example of such a process is the Liberty University PLACE assessment process. It is vital that all stakeholders at the institution be involved in planning and conducting assessment processes, which can be done by incorporating them into appropriate stages of an institution’s assessment processes. These stakeholders need to be aware of the standards the institution’s regional accreditation agency has developed to ensure the assessment processes carried out will produce improvements across the institution and produce the documentation necessary to demonstrate that the accrediting agency’s standards are being met.

For this assignment, compose a paper with the following:
1.
First, describe the three typical types of assessments (academic, non-academic, and co-
curricular) that are carried out by academic and non-academic departments of higher education institutions that are discussed in the Module Learn Read, Learn Watch, and Learn Explore materials. 2.
Next, you will analyze the stages of the Liberty University PLACE Process of Assessment described in the Watch: Assessment Models, Processes, and Stakeholders
item located in this module and suggest ways to incorporate specific, appropriate stakeholders into different stages of the Liberty University process. 3.
Finally, select a specific regional accrediting agency and judge which specific stakeholders would be involved in addressing each specific category/section of the agency’s accreditation standards. Your paper must be 3–5 pages (not including the required title, abstract, and reference pages). Support the content of your paper with at least six different sources from scholarly peer-reviewed
sources and/or the Bible. At least four sources must have been published within the past five years, and at least one source must be from the Bible. A source can be cited more than once. Current APA style must be followed throughout your paper. Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.
