Evidence of Student Learning: The Gold Standard for Accreditation Institutional and program accreditors have stepped up demands for evidence that student learning outcomes are being achieved and improved. Finding such evidence is often like panning for gold.

NSSE Produces Mountains of Summary Data and Analyses Lengthy survey instruments and many potential comparators and comparisons The Institutional Report’s three-inch binder An overwhelming array of data and comparative summaries
