for implementing new rigorous student learning assessments in higher education
With this grant support, Association members will work to incorporate into their practices and policies a new national framework of student learning outcomes called the Degree Qualifications Profile. It emphasizes deeper learning and defines what students should know and be able to do once they have earned associate, bachelor’s, or master’s degrees.
