Course-Exit Survey:
The course-exit survey is created to handle an entire department's course assessment or all the departments' course assessment within a college, and can be effectively used by the entire university with only a single survey deployment. EvalTools® allows you to select specific departments to be included in any given survey. In this category, there are two main surveys: (1) Outcomes-based Course Assessment Survey; and (2) General Course Assessment Survey.
The differences between these two types of surveys are summarised in the following table:
