Course Evaluations

Your feedback is important to us and will help us improve our courses. When you finish a course, please fill out a Course Evaluation Form! You may include your email if you want to be contacted, but your personal information is not provided to your instructors.

Likert Scale

The course evaluation system was upgraded in June 2020. There are no longer separate forms for online vs. face-to-face classes, all courses are now evaluated using a single form. In addition, for the security and integrity of the system, you must now log in to submit a course evaluation. Please follow the instructions after clicking the link below.
