First and foremost, the midterm review serves the purpose of enhancing the quality of the programs. Through peer review, an assessment is made of the current state of the education and what improvements could potentially be made. The midterm review is the moment when input from directly involved parties such as students, faculty, alumni, professionals in the field, and peers is utilized to enhance the program. This moment can also be used to present any potential curriculum changes to peers for consideration, which may then be implemented before external accreditation is sought. The MTR should provide an estimation of the judgment as if the program were to undergo accreditation at this moment. This entails evaluating, among other things, whether the recommendations from the previous external assessment have been followed, whether the quality of the final projects meets standards, and whether the program meets other criteria of the limited program evaluation of the NVAO.
