“The ability to create and customize self-study templates allows them to be used for a variety of institutional processes. I also like the ease of use/trainability for new users. Each time we set up a new user with a template, it is very simple to implement for the new users. Our faculty and staff have gotten used to utilizing Watermark for several tasks, and the system is now a part of our program review, assessment, and federal reporting practices.“ –

“The most helpful aspects are that all my program data live in one place for historical reference and access. Prior to the purchase of this resource, we had data on personal computers, excel spreadsheets and in emails. Now all Deans update [the] year for their programs and I can review it when needed. Also very helpful if a Dean leaves the university, I do not have to worry about where to find the Program Review and Assessment data.“ –

“From a faculty point of view, we’ve found Watermark’s Student Learning & Licensure to be fairly streamlined when completing assessment. SSO log in has been a game changer – faculty (and students) can quickly log in with their school credentials… Once data has been entered, reporting is a breeze. Our previous AMS took me hours per report – having to combine multiple csv files then use pivot tables and formulas to calculate data. What would take me a week of tedious work can now be finished in an hour or two.“ –
