The program uses Form AS 4(B) and/or 表格AS 4(M) to report its most recent assessment outcomes for each program option to constituents and the public on its website and routinely updates (minimally every 2 years) its findings.
All programs accredited by the 社会工作及教育委员会’s (CSWE) Commission on 认证 (COA) are required to measure and report student learning outcomes.

An aggregated percentage at or above the competency 基准 is considered 实现该能力. If the program has more than one program option, the program must report data for each program option, and also an aggregate of all program options combined to determine an overall percentage of students across all program 实现能力基准的选项.
