SLO Program Planning Template

Department faculty and chairs are encouraged to adapt this timeline for planning and reflecting on their SLO assessment data to suit their course and program offerings, preferred established processes, and obligations to external accreditors. All departments must meet the following baseline requirements: 

  1. All Course, Program, and Core 4 SLOs must be assessed and discussed at least once over the program planning cycle.
  2. After department SLOs are mapped, only course SLO data is gathered in class, as PSLO & ISLO data are generated automatically from CSLO mapping and can be reviewed and discussed any time throughout the cycle.
  3. Whenever disaggregated SLO data is collected, the findings should be incorporated into department discussion (Distance Ed, Equity, etc.).
