Evidence of Student Learning - Internal: How will the program measure what I have learned?:

Assessments in the individual courses are tied to lesson objectives as well as course competencies. They include both subjective and objective assessments that challenge students to demonstrate their skill level. Summative assessments (midterm and final exams) are designed to have students apply their knowledge and understanding of key concepts and think critically about how those concepts can be applied to real-life situations.

For the CCL in Organizational Leadership, final assessments/projects for GBS151, MGT229, MGT175, MGT251, and GBS233 were pulled from RioLearn/Perception, Rio's online grading tool. Of all students in the program who earned CCL degrees during Fiscal Years 2008, 2009, and 2010, the overall final exam/project pass rate for the five classes was 87.28%.
