UC Assessment Conference
Thursday, Feb. 12, 2025
UC Davis Conference Center
Davis, California
Join us for the second UC Assessment Conference, hosted by the Center for Educational Effectiveness at UC Davis. This year's theme is Equity-Minded Student Learning Outcomes Assessment across the Institution.
In line with this theme, we invite faculty, instructors, academic professionals, and leaders from across the UC system to submit proposals that explore equity-minded student learning outcomes assessment in courses, academic programs, general education, and learning-focused co-curricular programs.
The UC Assessment Conference brings together faculty, instructors, staff and leadership from across the University of California system to discuss equity-minded practices for assessing student learning. The all-day event includes plenary talks, presentations, poster and roundtable discussion sessions, and opportunities to connect with like-minded colleagues who share a commitment to advancing equity in higher education.
Conference participants will have opportunities to:
- explore new and promising assessment activities across the University of California;
- establish networks and communities of practice that co-create, advance, and enact equity-minded assessment;
- advance assessment of student learning as an essential practice for advancing equity in education.
UC-wide call for proposals: We invite you to showcase your work, share your successes and lessons learned, and engage with your peers to develop innovative frameworks for equity-minded assessment across the institution.

The deadline for proposal submissions is 11:59 p.m. Aug. 31.
