In Career Education we are most often developing competencies that are required to be successful in the field. Having defined competencies and assessing for those compentencies assures that we have graduates who can perform well in their career field.

Hi Don - Is the skills testing spaced intermittently over the course of the program or administered at the end of the students' program?

I so agree Armando! This really is I believe a huge difference between the private for-profit schools and the public non-profits. Our students are our customers and we strive to give the best customer service.

I like that idea Craig. It gives the students the opportunity to do some creative independent discussion.

Hi Anne- I like the idea of real-life transactions being used as the assessments in your accounting class. Although I agree that would be difficult to use as a final assessment. Susan

A very thoughtfuk response Kevin! I think it may be less intimidating in some ways to teach a larger group. There is less one-on-one and the instructor must plough through the material with questions from students that often cannot be explored with any real depth.
