Planning Committee

The National Assessment Week Planning Committee comprises twelve esteemed leaders in assessment from across the country. Established during the inaugural virtual meeting on August 15, 2022, this committee operates at the national level and is guided by Dr. Sakile K. Camara, the Director of Academic Assessment and Program Review at California State University, Northridge.

The committee's core mission is to ensure the provision of ample resources and activities to support assessment administrators nationwide. It's crucial to note that NAW is not merely an organization; it embodies a dynamic movement and serves as an invaluable resource for the assessment community.

Meeting biannually in the second week of September and February, the planning committee convenes to deliberate on themes and underscore the significance of fostering a national movement and shared discourse on assessment practices. Beyond theme selection, the committee makes vital decisions regarding National Assessment Week, addressing regional issues and concerns that impact diverse areas.

As stewards of National Assessment Week, the planning committee plays a pivotal role in designing and implementing educational assessment activities throughout the week. Their commitment extends to ensuring a rich and impactful experience for National Assessment Week attendees.
