Assessment in Higher Education: Translating Assessment to Success

April 6-7, 2026 | Gainesville, Florida

Welcome to the 2026 Assessment in Higher Education Conference! Join us in Gainesville, Florida for two days of insight, innovation, and collaboration as we explore how assessment practices translate into meaningful student success. Building on the momentum of our last conference, we are hoping to expand our reach to include professionals in accreditation, curriculum, and student success, reinforcing our belief that assessment is a part of the process and not an afterthought. 

Whether you are a seasoned assessment professional, or new to the conversation, you will find a welcoming space to connect, learn, and grow.
