As a part of the Student Development and Campus Life (SDCL) department, the Office of Career Services works hard to assist our students and graduates with a successful academic experience. The mission of SDCL is "dedicated to the personal and professional growth and development of the students of Indiana University Kokomo. Our department is committed to complementing the mission and commitments of IU Kokomo. Educational attainment is done by creating out-of-class practical learning opportunities for students." To help us achieve this goal, we conduct an annual assessment on a service or event offered through the office. This assessment is done as a part of our aim for continuous improvement in offering quality functions and events. The SDCL Assessment Plans and Reports for 2006 -07 and 2007 - 08 are available online.
