Assessment Methods Other Than Written Tests

• Students completing 'live' projects and internships will be assessed on their actual work with a company and how they performed in that work.
• Students will have to give presentations and participate in seminars to demonstrate their ability to communicate effectively, their level of confidence, and how well they understand the subject matter.
• Students will have to analyze actual business cases and will be graded on how they solved the problem in the case.
• Students will complete group projects and team-building assignments where they will be assessed on their teamwork and leadership abilities.
• The CPMP is a continual evaluation of students' soft skills, such as communication, personality, and professionalism.
• Through role playing and simulating different business situations, students will have the opportunity to demonstrate their decision-making skills.
• Classroom participation and activities will include classroom discussions, quizzes, and other interaction-based methods of evaluation.
• Students will complete written assignments and research projects as a means of assessing their ability to learn from their analytical and research experience.

These methods of evaluating are used in most business schools today to assess students' practical skills, ability to work with others, and their ability to apply knowledge in real-life situations, rather than just through theoretical means.
