Complete the Outcomes Assessment Results form below and include it with this annual report to the IACBE. Note: Section II of the form (Operational Assessment) needs to be completed only if you received first-time accreditation or reaffirmation of accreditation after January 1, An example of a completed form can be found in a separate document that is available for download on the IACBE s website at: Section I (Student Learning Assessment) of the Outcomes Assessment Results form must be completed for each business program that is accredited by the IACBE (i.e., a separate table must be provided for each program). Add tables, and insert or delete rows in the tables as needed in order to accommodate the number of your (i) business programs, (ii) majors, concentrations, specializations, emphases, options, or tracks in the programs, (iii) intended student learning outcomes, and (iv) intended operational outcomes. In the sections of the assessment results tables entitled Summary of Achievement of Intended Student Learning Outcomes and Summary of Achievement of Intended Operational IACBE Annual Report:

10 Outcomes, do not add or delete columns. Space is provided in these sections for four direct measures of student learning, four indirect measures of student learning, and eight operational assessment measures/methods. If you are employing fewer than this number of assessment instruments, simply leave cells in the unused columns blank. If you are employing more than this number of instruments, you will need to create additional summary-of-achievement tables to report your assessment information. Delete rows in the assessment results tables that do not apply to your academic business unit (e.g., if the business unit does not offer any majors, concentrations, specializations, emphases, options, or tracks in its programs, or if the business unit s current outcomes assessment plan does not include student learning assessment information for the majors, concentrations, specializations, emphases, options, or tracks in its programs, then delete those rows in the tables). In the sections of the assessment results tables entitled Summary of Achievement of Intended Student Learning Outcomes and Summary of Achievement of Intended Operational Outcomes, enter in a given cell of the table if the performance target for the instrument in that column was achieved for the intended outcome in that row; Not if the performance target for the instrument in that column was not achieved for the intended outcome in that row; or N/A (Not Assessed) if the instrument in that column does not measure the intended outcome in that row. Student learning performance objectives are the measurable targets/criteria associated with the assessment instruments and rubrics used by the academic business unit in determining whether the intended student learning outcomes have been achieved. For example, if the academic business unit is using a comprehensive project in a capstone course as a direct measure of student learning, then a performance objective might be that, on the project evaluation rubric, at least 80% of the students will be rated at the highest level (e.g., proficient, exemplary, etc.) on each learning-outcome-related project evaluation criterion. Operational performance objectives are the measurable targets/criteria associated with the assessment instruments used by the academic business unit in determining whether the intended operational outcomes have been achieved. For example, if the academic business unit has identified an operational outcome pertaining to faculty teaching and is using a senior exit survey as a measure of this outcome, then a performance objecitve might be that 90% of the students will be either satisfied or highly satisfied with various aspects of faculty teaching as identified by relevant items in the survey form. Your student learning assessment results tables need to include two or more direct measures of student learning and two or more indirect measures of student learning for each IACBE-accredited program. These measures must be used at the program level. At the bottom of each assessment results table, space is provided to identify changes and improvements that you plan to make as a result of your assessment activity. Italicized entries in the form represent areas where the academic business unit should insert its own assessment information. IACBE Annual Report:

11 Other Issues Briefly comment on other issues pertaining to your academic business unit that you would like to share with the IACBE. Baker College did not have General Program ISLO s in place for the academic year for Associate or Bachelor programs. We are in the process of changing assessment tools.
