MVCR Course Evaluations Summary

Evaluations for all sections of each MVCR course were compiled to provide an overall evaluation of that course. The most recent compilation was completed following the spring 2005 session.

Following each question found on the evaluation instrument below is a summary of the results for that question across MVCR courses. There were comment boxes for each question, but they are not provided here for privacy and space reasons.

Of particular note is that 99% of MVCR students report that they would take an MVCR online course again after completing one of our courses. All values are near excellent.
