Method and system for importing and exporting assessment project related data
First Claim
1. A method for sharing data related to an assessment project of a multi-level institution, the method comprising the steps of:
- developing, using a processor, at least a portion of the assessment project, based on input received from one or more users, within a first instantiation of a first assessment management system; and
exporting the portion of the assessment project in a format importable by a second assessment management system,wherein the first assessment management system is a first instantiation of a first computer-based assessment system and the second assessment management system is a second instantiation of a second computer-based assessment system,wherein the portion of the assessment project comprises at least one of;
a third party standard associated with an accreditation body;
a set of assessment objectives associated with an accreditation body;
one or more templates associated with an accreditation body; and
one or more program objectives associated with an accreditation body, and a set of courses aligned with those program objectives.

Abstract
A system of hardware and software provides a systematic and systemic method for performing assessment of the effectiveness of different levels within an institution. The system includes template driven definitions that span multiple tiers of hierarchically arranged operating units within the institution thereby providing flexibility and customization to handle a user-definable model of the institution'"'"'s organization. In particular, the assessment management system may share data in a format that is importable by other management systems. Sharing of data does not necessarily mean the concurrent sharing of data but rather that the data is exported in a format that is transportable to another system. Portions of an assessment project may be shared in this way with other institutions even if the organization levels and other operating units are not the same between the two institutions.
