在美国，许多化学系都在制定评估计划。美国化学学会（ACS）专业培训委员会的新指导方针要求一个部门的最新自我评估和对建议采取行动的计划。这份手稿描述了评估的做法，在机构的类型从大型公立国家机构小型私立文理学院。这些实践适合于评估的迭代周期模型，最终目标是提供可用于改进课程和计划的数据。本文所述的例子和案例研究可用作制定学习目标和评估计划的适应模型或背景信息。ACS考试协会通过其考试套件，包括本科化学知识诊断，也被认为是帮助部门制定评估计划的重要因素
Across the United States many chemistry departments are engaged in developing assessment plans. New guidelines from the American Chemical Society (ACS) Committee on Professional Training request a department’s latest self-assessment and a plan for acting on the recommendations. This manuscript describes assessment practices at institutions ranging in type from large public state institutions to small private liberal arts colleges. These practices are fit into a model of iterative cycles of assessment with the ultimate goal of providing data that can be used to improve courses and programs. The examples and case studies described herein can be used as models for adaptation or background information for the formulation of learning objectives and assessment plans. The contributions of the ACS Examinations Institute through its suite of examinations, including the Diagnostic for Undergraduate Chemical Knowledge, is also cited as an important element in helping departments develop their assessment plans
