Florida Board of Governors: Academic Learning Compact Requirements
The Florida Board of Governors mandates that all public universities in Florida develop Assessment Plans called Academic Learning Compacts (ALC) for each baccalaureate degree program. The Compacts are meant to identify the expected core student learning outcomes for degree program graduates relative to discipline-specific knowledge and skills, critical thinking skills, and communication skills. It is expected that students will acquire these skills and knowledge if they successfully follow the prescribed course of study in their declared major. The Compacts will describe precisely what students are expected to know and be able to demonstrate upon successful completion of their undergraduate degree program. Additionally, the Compacts must identify the corresponding assessment strategies used to measure student achievement on each of the core student learning outcomes for each degree program.

Each assessment plan contains student learning outcomes, methods of assessment, and levels of expectation for each academic program at USF Sarasota-Manatee. Annual reports include assessment results and use of results for program improvement.
