Jump to: Assessment Handbooks & Examples | Assessment Resources | Organizations | Student Learning Resources The term "Student Learning Outcomes" (aka
"Learning Assessment," "Outcomes Assessment" or "Assessment of Student Academic Achievement") refers to
a process of measuring or evaluating how well students master the objectives of our courses and programs.
Measuring how well our students are learning is the ultimate measure of our effectiveness as an organization.
Our regional accrediting agency, the Accrediting Commission for Community
and Junior Colleges (ACCJC) of the Western Association of Schools and
Colleges (WASC) has adopted new Standards for Accreditation that require all
colleges to have Learning Outcome Assessment Plans in place. These new
standards go into effect for all team visits beginning in Fall 2004. (Adapted from Gilliland, Phyllis. "Re: Assessment of Learning Outcomes at CCCCD."
