Office of Assessment & Continuous Improvement


The Office of Assessment and Continuous Improvement (OACI) provides support to the Educator Preparation Programs at the University of Cincinnati and the Dean’s Office in the College of Education, Criminal Justice, and Human Services. The main purpose of the Office of Assessment and Continuous Improvement is to coordinate accreditation through assessments and tracking. The OACI also coordinates field experiences for candidates and payments to mentor teachers.

This web page is intended to provide a central access point for candidates, mentor teachers, university supervisors, field coordinators and program chairs.
