N1 - To work toward obtaining ABET accreditation, the institution's members need to understand the processes including what they are, how to implement them, in which order to follow, when to apply the processes, etc. On the other hand, ABET evaluators look into several independent variables of students outcomes and course learning outcomes and their relations in order to conclude whether or not a particular program deserves the accreditation.

N2 - To work toward obtaining ABET accreditation, the institution's members need to understand the processes including what they are, how to implement them, in which order to follow, when to apply the processes, etc. On the other hand, ABET evaluators look into several independent variables of students outcomes and course learning outcomes and their relations in order to conclude whether or not a particular program deserves the accreditation. At the same time, the resources of the institution and ABET organization are limited. Hence, automation is needed to minimize preparation and processing time while also ensuring that available resources are effectively managed. The purpose of this work is to provide a robust framework and workflow to facilitate the collection and evaluation of ABET curriculum requirements which are part of the accreditation requirements. A tool called ABET Automation System (ABETAS) has been developed to serve this purpose. It is an absolute general tool that can work for any institution that is planning to obtain ABET accreditation while also ensuring effective management of processes.
