Student Assessment Services offers a responsive assessment and support system dedicated to educational improvement. By incorporating analysis, that is to say, assessment, into testing, Student Assessment Services provides an opportunity to reflect on the students we serve, to monitor the progress and effectiveness of our goals, and both guide and support institutional decision-making. Assessment is an embedded function of South Seattle College and a way we further understand our diverse community's learning needs.
