IEEE Engineering Technology Program Evaluator Educational Process

I. Introduction

This document provides an overview of the IEEE process for maintaining the educational activities and materials for the TAC-ABET accreditation Program Evaluators. This is intended to be used by the CTAA Education Subcommittee as an operational guide.

II. Educational Activities

The CTAA educational activities consist of maintaining the web-based training, training of new CTAA members, and other incidental training required for CTAA operations. **Note that PEV initial training is now an ABET responsibility.

A standard agenda item for the January CTAA meeting should be a session where all members suggest improvements in the process and take action to implement them. The Education Subcommittee should analyze the feedback from the previous workshops and suggest improvements.

III. Educational Materials

The educational materials consist of the Presentation View graphs, the web-based refresher training case studies and associated reference material. All of these require periodic review and updating.

IV. Evaluator Forms and Data

A number of forms and documents exist to manage the selection and tracking of evaluator information. These must be periodically reviewed for content and coverage.
