This study reports the results of a survey conducted during 2007 which was mailed to deans of schools of business at institutions of higher education located within the USA and the Middle East. Schools of business are now more engaged in assessment activities than a few years ago. Assessment activities are more costly and more emphasis seems to be placed on assessing communication skills, critical thinking, and professional knowledge. Colleges of business are relaying heavily on course-embedded measures, followed by indirect measures of assessment. Curriculum and instructional changes were the top-ranked uses of assessment results. Although almost the same percentage of colleges of business in 2007 has specific curriculum/programme objectives as they did in 1999 (92% in 2007 and 88% in 1999), significantly more US colleges actually assess their objectives. While 65% of the US institutions reported assessment activities annually, only 25% of Middle Eastern universities assessed their curriculum annually.

“…Students, according to Donald and Denison (2001), are the central focus in evaluating the quality of education. Several criteria are used to perceive student quality including: firstly, generic skills and abilities-which cover openness and flexibility in learning, independence, responsibility, being able to make analysis and synthesis, and to think critically; secondly, academic performance-which covers academic achievement during study time at the university, completing the programme promptly, and intelligence; thirdly, employment competence-which covers employability performance, ability to secure a job after graduating, and expertise; fourthly, specific skills-which covers competence in a second language and basic mathematics; lastly, academic readiness-which covers readiness from high school graduation to enter university, and readiness for general academic requirement and certain programmes.…”
