Levels of Assessment
Interpretation of Level
4 – Excellent
Exceeds expectations.
3 – Good
Meets expectations. No need for additional technical assistance at this time,
although some areas, as indicated, could be improved.
2 – Needs Improvement
Falls below expectations. Demonstrates limited effectiveness; additional technical
assistance and/or resource utilization is needed for improvement.
1 – Poor or Missing
Evidences little or no proficiency. A great deal of technical assistance and/or
resource utilization would be an immediate need.
N/A – Not Applicable
Statement does not apply to the program being reviewed.
