Abstract
Outcome Based Education is an educational approach that focuses on the outcomes that one will achieve after completing an academic programme. OBE (Outcome Based Education) is based on a very simple, practical and logical notion that every one of us uses in our everyday life. Outcome based approach means knowing what one wants to do and achieve rather than the steps to be followed to do so. This paper focuses on assessment tools and processes used to gather the data upon which the evaluation of each of the Program Outcomes and Program Specific Outcomes is based indicating the frequency with which these processes are carried out and also focuses on assessment processes that demonstrate the degree to which the Program Outcomes and Program Specific Outcomes are attained and the attainment levels.
