With a fifty-year history of commitment to serving adults, Widener University's University College recently volunteered to participate in CAEL's (Council for Adult and Experiential Learning) Adult Learning Focused Initiative (ALFI) by using the Institutional Self-Assessment Survey (ISAS) and the Adult Learner Inventory (ALI) from the ALFI Assessment Toolkit. A key reason for Widener's interest in the ALFI Assessment Toolkit was the need for more information to help with institutional strategic planning. In the fall of 2002, Widener University's new President, James T. Harris, III, outlined a university-wide strategic planning process. Emily Richardson, Dean of University College, recognized the University's need for a mechanism to assess its current programming and services to adult students. The assessment experience put Widener's University College on the path to continuous improvement, a mark of an Adult Learning Focused Institution. This paper describes how Widener University used the tools and cites how the outcomes affected organizational change.
