The program assessment reporting cycle for all Boise State colleges and departments is available using the reporting cycle link. Every three years, each department submits one Program Assessment Report (PAR) for each of its programs, excluding certificates and minors.

Departments that offer Foundations of the Disciplines (FD) courses must submit FD Reports to the GEC in the same reporting year. A current list of FD courses is available on the University Foundations webpage.
PAR Distribution List Process
Each August, a distribution list is created for programs scheduled to submit a Program Assessment Report for that academic year (due May 1). The distribution list includes programs listed on the 3-year reporting cycle and the following individuals: the current department chair, program director/coordinator (if applicable), the associate dean of the relevant college, and other faculty/staff who have contributed to previous PARs. Individuals on the distribution list will receive all PAR-related communications, including notifications regarding deadlines, changes to PAR process, workshops, etc. Others can be added to or removed from the distribution list upon request.
