VIA Office
To ensure a quality program of study for potential teachers and related personnel, a performance-based system of assessment is required.
The VIA by Watermark assessment system designed by the College of Education at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette collects artifacts and various forms of data.
The College of Education at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette has been an accredited institution since 1954 by the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE) and now currently by the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP). Our assessment system is used to help the College of Education maintain its accreditation.
