When we validate program outcomes (3-year cycle) in Career and Technical Programs, aren’t we assessing individual students?
No. We are assessing programs and program outcomes. We want to determine how well our programs are actually achieving what they profess to achieve. Program outcomes validation seeks to determine if program and general education outcomes are appropriate to meeting current academic, business, trade, and/or professional/technological standards.
