• Cognitive assessment will be done through various program rubrics, quizzes, and tests, that align with the national standards and guidelines curriculum for medical assistants. (MAERB)

• Program rubrics will be used to assess demonstration of competencies for the required psychomotor standards of the program, with critical elements identified. Students will use student centered learning stations set up in the classroom to re-mediate, and to initiate various scenario possibilities to ensure that students have strong clinical and critical thinking/problem solving skill sets.

• Appropriate assessment methods will be used to analyze cognitive retention, application to environment/scenario, while following all required industry safety standards.

Students will be assessed on the following scale:

The grading scale is:

• 99-100% = A+

• 94-98% = A

• 90-93% = A-

• 87-89% = B+

• 83-86% = B

• 80-82% = B-

• 76-79% = C+

• 70-75% = C

• 65-69% = D+

• 60-64% = D

• 59% and below = E

All medical assistant students will be required to follow national accreditation guidelines and pass 100% of all psychomotor and affective competencies, and pass the cognitive domain at a minimum of 85% to pass the class, and move forward to course.
